154 GEOMETRY AND TRIGONOMETRY.<br />

draw the lines C D and C B perpendicular, respectively,<br />

If<br />

to the radii O E and O A. C B is, the<br />

sine, C D the cosine, and A T the tan-<br />

gent.<br />

(317) Suppose that in Fig. 10, the<br />

line A T has been drawn equal to 3<br />

times the radius O A. From T draw<br />

T O; then, the tangent<br />

TA<br />

OA<br />

oi T O A<br />

= 3. Where T O cuts the circle<br />

at C, draw CD and C B perpendicu-<br />

lar, respectively,<br />

\.o O E and O A.<br />

C D vs, the cosine and C B the sine.<br />

Fig. 10. The angle corresponding to tan 3 is<br />

/ound by the table to equal 71° 33' 54"; therefore, sin<br />

71° 33' 54" = .94868 and cos 71° 33' 54" = .31623.<br />

(318) The angle whose cos is .39278 = 66° 52' 20'.<br />

Sin of 66° 52' 20" = .91963.<br />

Tan of 66° 52' 20" = 2.34132.<br />

For a circle with a diameter 4— times as large, the values<br />

of the above cos, sin, and tan will be<br />

.3<br />

.39278= 1.86570 cos.<br />

.91963= 4.36824 sin.<br />

C- X 2.34132 = 11.12127 tan-<br />

(319) See Fig. 11. Angle B = 180° - (29° 21'<br />

+ 76° 44' 18") = 180° - 106° 5' 18" = 73° 54' 42".<br />

From C^ draw C D perpendicular<br />

to A B.<br />

A D = A C cos A = 31.833<br />

X cos 29° 21' = 31.833 X .87164<br />

= 27.747 it. CD = A C sin A<br />

= 31.833 X sin 29° 21' = 31.833<br />

X .49014 = 15.603. fig. 11.
