From half the sum of the three angles subtract each ofthe angles next to the required side. 2. Add together the cosines of these two remainders andthe co-arcs of the sines ol each of the adjacent angles. 3. Half the sum of these four logarithms will give the co-sine of half the required side.* * Let s be put for the sum of the three angles, a for the angleopposite to the required side, b and c for the adjacent angles;then the Theorem may be expressed thus : „ , ., r5 x cos i —Ay cos. i-v—r Cos. i side = s/ .-^- : - ; ? sm. b x sin. c Whence, logarithms being used, Cos.^ side = cos iy—b -J-cos. it—c 4-co-ar.
