Side 38 - All the interior angles of any rectilineal figure, together with four right angles, are equal to twice as many right angles as the figure has sides.
Side 70 - TO THEIR DIFFERENCE ; So IS THE TANGENT OF HALF THE SUM OF THE OPPOSITE ANGLES', To THE TANGENT OF HALF THEIR DIFFERENCE.
Side 27 - Root of a Number, Divide the logarithm of the number by the index of the required root.
Side 33 - When one straight line meets another, so as to make two adjacent angles equal, each of these angles is called a right angle; and the first line is said to be perpendicular to the second.
Side 195 - To multiply a decimal by 10, 100, 1000, &c., remove the decimal point as many places to the right as there are ciphers in the multiplier ; and if there be not places enough in the number, annex ciphers.
