Excerpt from Elements of Trigonometry: With Tables This book contains, in revised form and with some additions, the material of the chapters on trigonometry found in the author's text book on Advanced Algebra and Trigonometry. The theory of the subject is here presented in a manner as direct and elementary as possible, and much attention is given to the applications, which are brought out in numerous examples and exercises. These cover a sufficient range to give the student in technical courses a working knowledge of trigonometry as a tool. Great care has been taken to make the illustrations instructive, and a large amount of graphic work is called for in the exercises throughout the text. The presentation of spherical trigonometry, with applications to the terrestrial globe and to practical astronomy; has been reduced to the space of 17 pages, which will be found to contain a fair introduction to the subject. If this is to be included with plane trigonometry in a three-hour course, the work in identities and in the numerical solution of triangles should be reduced to a mini mum. Four-place tables are appended to the text, in the belief that they are sufficient for a large range of practical applications, and, be cause of their brevity, are less confusing to beginners and enable them to get results in less time than would be the case with more extensive tables. The explanation of the table of logarithms is made on the assumption that the student has no knowledge of the subject of logarithms. Answers are given to nearly all of the odd-numbered exercises. This gives the instructor the liberty of assigning exercises with or without given answers, as may seem best. For the convenience of the student a protractor is provided and will be found inside the back cover. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
