About the Book

Not illustrated. 1848 edition. Excerpt: ...angle is one the plane of whose sides is horizontal. An angle of elevation is a vertical angle having one side horizontal and the other an ascending line, as the angle BAD. An angle of depression is a vertical angle having one side horizontal and the other a descending line, as the angle CDA.' _ (126.) When distances are to be found A by trigonometrical computation, it is necessaiy to measure at least one line upon the ground, and also as many angles as may be necessary to render three parts of every triangle known. In the measurement of lines, the unit commonly employed by surveyors is a chain four rods or sixty-six feet in length, called Gunter's Chain, from the name of the inventor. This chain is divided into 100 links. Sometimes a half chain is tisecT, containing 50 links. Hence, 1 chain= 100 links =66 feet; 1 rod = 25 links =16feet; 1-link =7.92 inches = of a foot nearly. (127.) To measure a horizontal line. To mark, the termination of the chain in measuring, ten iron pins should be provided, about a foot in length. Let the person who is to go foremost in carrying the chain, take one end of the chain and the ten pins; and let another person take the other end of the chain, and hold it at the beginning of the line to be-measured. When the leader has advanced until the chain is stretched tight, he must set down one pin at the end of the chain, the other person taking care that the chain is in the direction pf the line to be measured. Then measure a second chain in. the same manner, and so on until all tlje marking pins are exhausted. A record should then be made that ten chains have been measured, after which the marking pins should be returned to the leader, and the measurement continued as before until the whole line has been passed...
