INVERSE SOLUTION. 
Having Latitudes and Longitudes of Two Points to Compute Azimuths and 
Distances. 
The following example shows the method of performing the opera- 
tion. The northernmost point should be used as the initial position, 
then all signs for (1), (II), and (III) are +, and for (IV) -. The 
value of //A. may be either + or — , but this sign need onl}^ be used 
in determining in which quadrant the azimuth angle a falls, i. e., the 
sign of tan a (12). An inspection of a rough plat of the positions 
will also determine this. The correction to JX is found from a 
distance scaled oft' from the plat, and need not be very close. In 
(8) the term (I+II)^ is the square of the difference of latitude ^cp in 
seconds. Since (IV) is always small, log (I) in (8) may be taken as 
log of /l(p from (1). If cos a is smaller than sin fl', find s from 
log 5 cos 6f in (11). As a check on the work compute the second
