Plane Trigonometry, Surveying and Tables

Plane Trigonometry, Surveying, and Tables is a comprehensive textbook by George Albert Wentworth, likely dating from the late 19th century. This volume combines instruction in plane trigonometry with practical applications to surveying, accompanied by extensive mathematical tables for calculations. Designed for students and practitioners alike, the book provides a thorough grounding in trigonometric principles and their use in determining distances, heights, and angles in the field. Wentworth’s clear and methodical approach makes this book a valuable resource for understanding the mathematical foundations of surveying. The inclusion of tables eliminates the need for tedious manual calculations, enhancing the book’s utility. This edition offers a glimpse into the methods used by surveyors and mathematicians of the era.This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it.
