...Proposition HI. may here be written as a rule. " As the sum of the given sides is to their difference, so is the tangent of half the sum of the opposite angles to the tangent of half their difference. And the half difference added to half the sum gives the angle opposite the greater side, and, subtracted,... | |

...same radius AD, by the definition of a tangent. But, the tangents AE, DF, being parallel, it will be as BE : BD :: AE : DF ; that is, as the sum of the...opposite angles, to the tangent of half their difference. The sum of the unknown angles is found, by taking the given angle from 180°. In the plane triangle... | |

...: sin B : : a : Ъ. (2) In any plane triangle, as the sum of any two sides is to their difference, so is the tangent of half the sum of the opposite angles, to the tangent of half their difference. From the preceding, we have, a^_ sin A Ъ ~~ sin В . Add 1 to both sides, a . , sin A ., . , then... | |
