A treatise on spherical trigonometry, and its application to geodesy and astronomy, with numerous examples. By John Casey.

Incircles. 77 ExERCISES.-XXII. 1. Prove tan r = sin a sin ~ B sin ~ C sec A, (306) 2.,, tan r = N 2 cos 1A cos B cos C. (307) 3.,, cot r= 2N {sin(A- E) +sin (B-E) +sin (C-BE)-sinE}. (308) 4.,, if a + b + c = r, prove tan r = tan 2 A tan B tan ~ C. (309) 5.,, tan r tana ra. tan rb tan rc = n2. (310) 6.,, tan ra = sin a cos 1 B cos ~ C sec A. (311) 7.,, cotra = 2- {sin E+ sin(B - E) + sin(C- E) -sin (A - E)}. (312) 8.,, cot r - cot ra = {sin (A - E) - sin E}. (313) 9. Prove that the centre of the incircle is the orthocentre of the triangle formed by the excentres. 10. Prove cot ra + cot rb + cot rc = (cot ~ A + cot 2 B + cot ~ C) - sin s. (314) 11. Prove that the common tangents of the escribed circles taken in pairs are a + b, b + c, c + a, respectively. 12. If Oa, Oh, Oc be the centres of the escribed circles, prove that cos ra COS rb cos re cos 00a: cos 00b: cos 00c: cos ra::. (315) cos(s-a) cos(s-b) cos(s-c) 13. Prove that cot r 4 cot ra + cot rb + cot rc = { sinE+sin(A-E)+sin(B-E) +sin(C-.E)}. (316) 14. Prove sin(s-a) sin(s-b) sin(s-c) sin2. 0: sin2 BO: sin2 CO:: in sic (317) sin a sin b sin c 15. Prove that the cosines of the angles of the triangle 0,, Ob, Oc are respectively equal to cos s. sin 2 A, cos s. sin -B, cos s. sin C.
