Excerpt from A Course in the Solution of Spherical Triangles for the Mathematical Laboratory

The aim of the following pages is to present, in a form suitable for the use of students in the Mathematical Laboratory, an account of the various methods of solution of the spherical triangle, numerical and graphical.

The subject is of importance in view of its applications. It has also considerable value from the educational point of view; it develops the power of dealing with " geometry of situation," and at the same time provides an excellent training in computation and furnishes instructive comparisons of the accuracy of different methods of solution.

I wish to express my thanks to Professor Whittaker, who invited me to undertake the work and has helped me with many valuable suggestions; to Mr A. W. Young, M.A., B.Sc., for reading the manuscript and proofs; and to Mr E. L. Ince, M. A., B.Sc., for drawing the greater part of the diagrams.
