To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Having found log P -log Q = log N, we enter the table with this as an argument, and opposite to it find log (1 + -^) or log (1 - -j^), according as we have to do with the sum or with the difference : this added to Log P gives log{P+ Q) or log{P- Q). Tables of this kind are to be found in several Logarithmic and Trigonometrical collections. The ordinary trigonometrical tables can be made use of in this calcula- tion ; thus we have sec a^ = 1 + tan a? . If, then, we assume a such that tan a^ = -^... we shall obtain P+ Q = P .seca^. To apply this to our pre- sent problem we make the subtraction LogQ-LogP, and halving this difference we find «, such that Log tana = ^ {Log Q - Log P) , then taking out from the page which is already open, the arithmetical complement of log cos a, or log sec a if it be given, we have Log{P+Q) = Log P + 2 Log sec a . Similarly 1 - sin a^ = cos a^, wherefore if we obtain an angle a such that log sin a = ^ {log Q - log P), we shall have Log {P - Q) = Log P + 2 log cos a, .
