EXPLANATION OF TABLE II*

VALUES AND LOGARITHMS OF TRIGONOMETRIC FUNCTIONS

1. DIRECT READING OF THE VALUES. This table gives the sines, cosines, tangents and cotangents of the angles from 0° to 45°; and by a simple device, indicated by the printing, the values of these functions for angles from 45° to 90° may be read directly from the same table. For angles less than 45° read down the page, the degrees and minutes being found on the left; for angles greater than 45° read up the page the degrees and minutes being found on the right.

To find a function of an angle (such as 15° 27', for example) we employ the process of interpolation. To illustrate, let us find tan 15° 27'. In the table we find tan 15° 20' .2742 and tan 15° 30' = .2773; we know that tan 15° 27' lies between these two numbers. The process of interpolation depends on the assumption that between 15° 20′ and 15° 30′ the tangent of the angle varies directly as the angle; while this assumption is not strictly true, it gives an approximation sufficiently accurate for a four-place table. Thus we should assume that tan 15° 25' is halfway between .2742 and .2773. We may state the problem as follows: An increase of 10' in the angle increases the tangent .0031; assuming that the tangent varies as the angle, an increase of 7' in the angle will increase the tangent by .7 × .0031 four places we write this .0022. Hence

=

.00217.

tan 15° 27' = .2742.0022 = .2764.

Retaining only

The difference between two successive values in the table is called the tabular difference (.0031 above). The proportional part of the tabular difference which is used is called the correction (.0022 above), and is found by multiplying the tabular difference by the appropriate fraction (.7 above).

tabular difference = .0013 (subtracted mentally from the table).

(to be subtracted because the cosine decreases as the angle increases).

Rule. To find a trigonometric function of an angle by interpolation: select the angle in the table which is next smaller than the given angle, and read its sine (cosine, tangent, or cotangent as the case may be) and the tabular difference. Compute the correction as the proper proportional part of the tabular difference. In case of sines or tangents ADD the correction: in case of cosines or cotangents, SUBTRACT it.

2. REVERSE READINGS. Interpolation is also used in finding the angle when one of its functions is given.

Example 1. Given sin x = .3294, to find x.

Looking in the table we find the sine which is next less than the given sine to be .3283, and this belongs to 19° 10′. Subtract the value of the

sine selected from the given sine to obtain the actual difference note that the tabular difference

.0011; .0028. We may state the problem as follows: an increase of .0028 in the function increases the angle 10'; then an increase of .0011 in the function will increase the angle 11/28 of 10

=

4 (to be added). Hence x = 19° 14'.

Example 2. Given cos x = .2900, to find x.

The cosine in the table next less than this is .2896 and belongs to 73° 10′; the tabular difference is 28; the actual difference is 4; correction

=

4/28 of 10

=

1 (to be subtracted). Hence x = 73° 9'.
