Master spherical geometry with practical methods and clear examples. This edition, Part II of A Treatise on Spherical Trigonometry, extends the subject to spherical geometry and its many applications, offering rigorous results and worked problems that build on the fundamentals of trigonometry.
This volume focuses on circles related to a triangle, area and polygon theory on a sphere, and the chordal triangle. It blends theory with concrete methods, including principles behind incircles, circumcircles, Hart’s circle, and area calculations for spherical figures. You’ll find numerous examples that illuminate how these concepts connect to spherical geometry as a whole.
What you’ll experience
- In-circle and ex-circle radii, and their angular measures on the sphere
- Relationships between circumcircles and polar triangles, plus angular radii
- Methods for determining the angular radius of circumcircles and related circles
- Area formulas for spherical triangles, circular segments, and polygons on a sphere
- The chordal triangle, concurrent arcs, harmonic properties, and direction angles/cosines
Ideal for readers of advanced geometry who want a self-contained, example‑driven treatment of spherical figures and their properties in a rigorous, approachable format.
