Página 529 - Consider, for instance, joint 6, the polygon for which is a gij a. Notice that the corresponding letters AGIJA, on the truss, follow one another around the joint in such a manner that in passing from one to another we move in a direction opposite to that in which the hands of a clock move, and by naming them all we go around an entire circle in the same direction, passing from A to G, from G to /, from / to J, etc. This gives the directions of the corresponding lines in the diagram for the given...
Página 77 - In order to find the square root of a number, the first step is to find how many figures there will be in the root. This is done by pointing off the number into periods of two figures each, beginning at the rig/it.
Página 93 - The terms of a ratio are the two numbers to be compared ; thus, in the above ratio, 20 and 4 are the terms. When both terms are considered together, they are called a couplet ; when considered separately, the first term is called the antecedent, and the second term the consequent. Thus, in the ratio 20 : 4, 20 and 4 form a couplet, and 20 is the antecedent, and 4 the consequent.
