As above, it may readily be deduced from the triangle CFS (seeFig. 148) that (2R-d): (c^-gr):: cot J^: tan ^F, and finally that 2n(d--g)2R-d (112) tan ^d)Similarly we may derive (as in Eq. 110) ir-lg)^iR-l,)^^^^ (113) §273.

In such a casewe may write, by substitut-ing in Eq. 112, 2R-d = 4n(d-g). (115) This equation shows the valueof R, which renders this casepossible with the given valuesof n, d, and g.
