Seite 67 - Аь the rectangle of the given side and sine of the given angle, Is to twice the given area ; So is radius, To the other side adjacent to the given angle. Then having two sides and the included angle given, the other angles and side, if required, may be found by trig...
Seite 15 - All the meridians passing through a survey of moderate extent, are considered as straight lines parallel to each other. The bearing or course of a line is the angle which it makes with a meridian passing through one end ; and it is reckoned from the north or south point of the horizon, toward the east or west. Thus, if NS represent a meridian, and the angle NAB is 40°, then the bearing of AB from the point A is 40° to the west of north, and is written N. 40° W., and read north forty degrees west....
