' Gunter was the first to use the terms cosine, cotangent and cosecant for the sine, tangent, and secant of the comple- 

 ment of an arc. To him are also due the invention of the surveying-chain, a quadrant, and a scale, and the first observa- 

 tion of the variation of the compass. The name oi Gunter s Scale, or Guuter's Lines, is usually given to the 3 lines to be 

 seen on almost any sector, and marked N, S, T, meaning the lines of logarithmic numbers, of logarithmic sines, and of 

 logarithmic tangents. . . . Many rough problems in areas, heights, cubic contents, and other matters, may be performed 

 through the agency of Gunter's Scale '.
