Synopsis
Master the essentials of plane and spherical trig for naval use and real-world navigation. This edition brings together theory and practical application in one comprehensive volume, designed for quick, reliable reference aboard ship or at the Royal Naval College.
From fundamentals to problem solving, it covers both the mathematical framework and the hands-on techniques needed to apply logarithms and trigonometric formulae to real-world navigation, surveying, and astronomy. The text places a clear emphasis on practical work, with numerous worked examples, worked-out procedures, and a rich set of exercises drawn from examination papers.
- Two main parts introduce plane and spherical trigonometry, then dedicate a sizeable section to practical methods and the use of tables of logarithms.
- Step-by-step guidance on solving triangles, areas, and navigational problems with an eye toward naval needs.
- Historical context and naval-education focus, showing how the material supports Nautical Astronomy and navigation tasks.
- A wealth of end-of-chapter problems and miscellaneous examples to practice and solidify understanding.
Ideal for readers of classic mathematical texts used in naval training, students studying navigation, and anyone seeking a solid, application-driven introduction to plane and spherical trigonometry.

Évaluation du vendeur 4 sur 5 étoiles
Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book is an indispensable guide to plane and spherical trigonometry. It was written with the view of providing complete theoretical instruction, as well as numerous solved and unsolved problems in a manner not often met with in other textbooks. The coverage includes the measurement of lines and angles and of the various trigonometrical ratios, with an examination of the ratios of angles unlimited in magnitude. The author delves into the subject of trigonometrical equations and the methods of solving them, rounded off with a chapter containing a collection of problems in practical trigonometry. This book may be regarded as an introduction to the subject of navigation and nautical astronomy and as such will prove a valuable acquisition to the library of the junior naval officer, and all interested in further study of the subject. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. N° de réf. du vendeur 9781330394267_0
