Mathematical Treasures - Ozanam's Trigonometry
Author(s):
Frank J. Swetz (The Pennsylvania State University)
Jacques Ozanam (1640–1717) was a popular Parisian mathematics teacher and a prolific author of texts. This is the title page for his Trigonometry, Plane and Solid, published in 1741.
The first proposition in the Trigonometry.
