Basic Tools and Concepts
2014
In this chapter, from the Greeks (through much subsequent development), we derive the tools of spherical astronomy. We will describe the basic theorems of spherical trigonometry and emphasize the usefulness of the sine and cosine laws. We will also describe the ellipse and its properties, in preparation for a subsequent discussion of orbits.
