 In searching for the next less (or greater) logarithm, attention must be paid to the fact that the functions are found in different columns according as the angle is below or above 45°. If, for example, the next less logarithmic sine is found in the...  A Treatise on Plane and Spherical Trigonometry - Page viiby Ephraim Miller - 1894 - 193 pagesFull view - About this book
