Plane Trignometry Volume 2

by Sidney Luxton Loney

About the Book: Plane Trigonometry Part 2 This book is expected to be fairly complete elementary text book on Plane Trigonometry, suitable for Schools and the Pass and Junior Honour classes of Universities. In the higher portion of the book, the students have been presented, as simply as possible, the modern treatment of complex quantities, and in such a manner that they will have little to unlearn when they commence to read treatises of more difficult character. As Trigonometry consists largely of formulae and the applications thereof, a list of the principal formulae which the student is expected to memorise has been prefixed. These more important formulae are distinguished in the text by the use of thick type. Other formulae are subsidiary and of less importance. The number of examples is very large. A selection only should be solved by the student on a first reading. On a first reading also the articles marked with an asterisk should be omitted
