A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

Ever since the publication of our Elementary McU hematical Analysis (T heM acmillan Co., 1917) we have been asked by numerous teachers to publish separately, as a textbook in plane trigonometry, the material on trigonometry and logarithms of Jthe text mentioned. The present textbook is the direct outcome of these requests. rs Of course, such separate publication of material taken out of the body of another book necessitated some changes and an introductory chapter. As a matter of fact, however, we have found it desirable to make a number of changes and additions not required by the necessities of separate publication. As a result fully half of the material has been entirely rewritten, with the purpose of bringing the text abreast of the most recent tendencies in the teaching of trigonometry. There is an increasing demand for a brief text emphasizing the numerical aspect of trigonometry and giving only so much of the theory as is necessary for a thorough understanding of the numerical applications. The material has therefore been arranged in such a way that the first six chapters give the essentials of a course in numerical trigonometry and logarithmic computation. The remainder of the theory usually given in the longer courses is contained in the last two chapters. More emphasis than hitherto has been placed on the use of tables. For this purpose a table of squares and square roots has been added. Recent experience has emphasized the applications of trigonometry in navigation.

Présentation de l'éditeur

This book was originally published prior to 1923, and represents a reproduction of an important historical work, maintaining the same format as the original work. While some publishers have opted to apply OCR (optical character recognition) technology to the process, we believe this leads to sub-optimal results (frequent typographical errors, strange characters and confusing formatting) and does not adequately preserve the historical character of the original artifact. We believe this work is culturally important in its original archival form. While we strive to adequately clean and digitally enhance the original work, there are occasionally instances where imperfections such as blurred or missing pages, poor pictures or errant marks may have been introduced due to either the quality of the original work or the scanning process itself. Despite these occasional imperfections, we have brought it back into print as part of our ongoing global book preservation commitment, providing customers with access to the best possible historical reprints. We appreciate your understanding of these occasional imperfections, and sincerely hope you enjoy seeing the book in a format as close as possible to that intended by the original publisher.
