Seite 23 - C' (89) (90) (91) (92) (93) 112. In any plane triangle, the sum of any two sides is to their difference as the tangent of half the sum of the opposite angles is to the tangent of half their difference.
Seite 26 - ... for this purpose an account is given in a note subjoined to this part. In the solution of this problem we have made use of the theorem, the sines of the angles are to each other as the sides opposite to these angles. We might also apply the rule given for right-angled triangles (Trig. 30), namely, radius is to the tangent of one of the acute angles, as the side adjacent to this angle is to the side opposite ; thus, As radius or sine of 90° . 10,00000 is to 6 c 2,30103 so is tang Abe 47° 30...

In the solution of this problem we have made use of the theorem, the sines of the angles are to each other as the sides opposite to these angles.
Seite 85 - I asked whether they were perfectly convinced that in a right-angled triangle the square of the hypothenuse is equal to the squares of the other two sides ? He answered in the affirmative.
