To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
This table may be computed in the fol lowing manner : According to Art. 197, cosine of latitude is to radius, as the departure is to the difference of longitude ; that is, as a part of a parallel of latitude is to a like part of the equator, of any meridian. But by Art. 28, cosine : R : : R : secant ; hence 1' of a parallel : V of a meridian : : R : sec. Latitude. But on Mercator's chart the distance between the meridians is the same in all latitudes ; that is, a minute on a parallel of latitud...e is equal to a minute at the equator, or a geographical mile. Hence the length of one minute, on any part of a me- ridian, is equal to the secant of the latitude. Thus, The first minute of the meridian = the secant of 1' ; second " " = " 2', third " " = " 3', &c. , &c. The table of meridional parts is formed by adding together the minutes thus found. Thus, Mer. Parts of 1' sec. 1' ; Mer. Parts of 2'= sec. I'+sec. 2' ; Mer. Parts of 3'=sec. I'+sec. 2'+sec. 3'; Mer. Parts of 4' sec. I'+sec. 2'+sec.
