Excerpt from A Course of Mathematics, Vol. 1 of 2: Composed for the Use of the Royal Military Academy; Twelfth Edition, With Considerable Alterations and Additions

In the plane trigonometry nothing besides the examples for exercise, of the last edition, remains in this. TO give every thing essential to elemen tary trigonometry investigated in a direct and simple manner, and eu tirely to exclude all matters of mere scientific curiosity, has been my guid ing principle in the composition of these chapters. Trigonometry, there fore, instead of forming two separate treatises in two successive volumes, is now brought entirely into the first; and the examples that are changed in place have been marked by a quotation of the places in which they previously stood, for the convenience Of those who wish to make reference to any works founded on the preceding edition. The few additional ex amples here given, will Offer no difficulty to those who have fully mastered those of that edition.
