Page 1 - A spherical triangle is a portion of the surface of a sphere, bounded by three arcs of great circles.
Page 69 - THEOREM. The surface of a spherical triangle is measured by the excess of the sum of its three angles above two right angles, multiplied by the tri-rectangular triangle.
Page 8 - I. The sine of the middle part is equal to the product of the tangents of the adjacent parts.
Page 8 - II. The sine of the middle part is equal to the product of the cosines of the opposite parts.
Page 30 - Any angle is greater than the difference between 180° and the sum of the other two angles.
Page 51 - The cosine of half the sum of two sides of a spherical triangle is to the cosine of half their difference as the cotangent of half the included angle is to the tangent of half the sum of the other two angles.
