Synopsis

Excerpt from Plane and Spherical Trigonometry: And Four-Place Tables of Logarithms

It has been the author's aim to treat the subject according to the latest and most approved methods. The book is designed for the use of colleges, technical schools, normal schools, secondary schools, and for those who take up the subject without the aid of a teacher. Special attention has been paid to the requirements of the College Entrance Board. The book contains more material than is required for some first courses in Trigonometry, but the matter has been so arranged that the teacher can make such omissions as will suit his particular needs.

The trigonometric functions are defined as ratios; first for acute angles in right triangles, and then these definitions are extended to angles in general by means of coordinates. The student is first taught to use the natural functions of acute angles in the solution of simple problems involving right triangles. Attention is called to the methods shown in 23 - 29 for the reduction of functions of angles outside of the first quadrant. In general, the first examples given under each topic are worked out, making use of the natural functions. A large number of carefully graded exercises are given, and the processes involved are summarized into working rules wherever practicable. Illustrative examples are worked out in detail under each topic.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the fascinating world of trigonometry, a branch of mathematics that explores the relationships between angles and the sides of triangles. The author, recognizing the need for a comprehensive guide, has crafted a text suitable for a wide audience, from college students to those learning independently. Building upon the foundations laid by earlier mathematicians, the book presents a clear and detailed exposition of trigonometric functions, first defining them for acute angles in right triangles before extending these definitions to encompass angles of any size. The text also offers a thorough explanation of logarithmic calculations, highlighting their importance for simplifying complex calculations in trigonometry. Through numerous carefully graded exercises and worked examples, the book guides readers through the various aspects of plane and spherical trigonometry. The author also explores the applications of this discipline to real-world problems in fields like geodesy, astronomy, and navigation, illustrating how trigonometry serves as a vital tool for understanding the world around us. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
