RESULTS OF OBSERVATIONS AND COMPUTATIONS. 





;u : : STARS NEAR « AQUIL^. 



GREENWICH, 1765. DUBLIM, 1825. 





All the small stars are to the southward of « Aquilas. From these 

 are deduced the sides* of the triangle formed by the stars 1, 3, 4, 



,'M 



The sides of the triangle formed by the stars 1, 2, 3, 



* These sides are computed by the following formulse : 

 N.n being the polar distances, and P the angle at the pole, or the diff. of right ascensions - 

 sin. J dist. = sin. ^ Px V^sin. A' sin. n x sec. A. 



sin. ^ P sin. iV sin. n
