The north polar distances of these eight faces will each be p The eight similar faces in the southern hemisphere will have the same longitudes as those corresponding to them in the northern, the eight north polar distances being each equal 180°-P2.

A, will be the longitude of mn 1, 90°-λ, of n m 1, 90° + λ, of n m 1, 180°-λ, of mn 1, 180°+λ, of mñ 1, 270°-λ, of π m 1, 270° +λ, of nm 1, and 360°-λ of mñ 1.

P1 will be the north polar distance of each of these eight faces.

The corresponding eight faces of the southern hemisphere will have the same longitudes as the corresponding ones in the northern, 180°-p1 being the north polar distance of these eight faces.

Hence the 48 faces or poles of the six-faced octahedron can be expressed in terms of P1, A1, P2, A2, and P3, Ag; and, as all other forms of the cubical system can be derived from those of the six-faced octahedron, all faces of those forms can be similarly expressed.

From the spherical triangle C1ƒC, (fig. 40*, Plate IV.*), we have by the formulæ of spherical trigonometry,

cos fC=cos CC, cos C1f+ sin C1C, sin C1f cos ƒC1C3; but the spherical angle ƒCC, is measured by the arc gC, at the equator.

Hence, substituting the values of these arcs given in the previous section, we have

cos p1=cos 90° cos p+ sin 90° sin p, cos λ,

=sin p2 cos g.

119. To find the angle between the poles of two faces in terms of their polar distances and longitudes.

Let CF be the polar distance of F (fig. 41, Plate IV.*), CL its longitude, Cif the polar distance, and Cl the longitude of f.

Also let CFP, C1f=P3; C2L=L3, C2l=λ ̧, and Fƒ=0. Then in spherical triangle C1Fƒ

cos Ff=cos CF cos Cif+ sin C1F sin C1f sin FC1ƒ. Then angle FC1f is measured by arc Ll=LC,-ÏC3. Hence cos 0=cos P, cos P3+ sin P, sin p, cos (L-λg). To adapt this to logarithmic computation
