PROP. V. By knowing the Latitude of a Place, and the Suns Declination, to find the Ascensional Difference.

This is the Analogy or Proportion.

As Radius or S. 90°,

To Tc. of the Latitude given,

So is T. of the Suns Declination given,

To the S. of the Ascensional difference required.

☞ Note that if you reduce the degrees, &c. of the Ascensional difference into hours, it will shew you how much the Sun riseth, or setteth before, or after six a Clock, in that Latitude.
