...consequently A' + B' < 180° (Art. 13G) ; that is, 360°— (a + 5) < 180°, or a + b > 180°. 138. The sines of the sides of a spherical triangle are proportional to the sines of the opposite angles. Thus let ABC be any spherical triangle, of which the angles are A, B, and C, and the sides opposite...
