Sherwin's Mathematical Tables, Contriv'd After a Most Comprehensive Method

Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book explores the world of spherical trigonometry, a branch of mathematics that examines triangles on curved surfaces like spheres. It delves into the history of spherical trigonometry, tracing its origins from ancient Greek astronomers to its modern applications in fields like navigation and surveying. The author presents a comprehensive guide to fundamental concepts, including spherical angles, sides, and various formulas for solving spherical triangles. Beyond its theoretical foundations, this book goes on to cover a variety of practical applications of spherical trigonometry. It explains how it is used to calculate distances between points on a sphere, determine the position of celestial bodies, and solve problems in geodesy, cartography, and astronomy. Through numerous solved examples and exercises, readers gain hands-on experience applying spherical trigonometry in real-world scenarios. This book's systematic approach and clear explanations make it an invaluable resource for students, researchers, and practitioners in various fields that rely on spherical trigonometry. It provides a comprehensive understanding of this subject, its historical significance, and its wide-ranging practical applications in diverse disciplines where precision measurement on curved surfaces is essential.
