[Wi]th a table of artificial sines, tangents, and the complements arithmetical of sines supplying the use of secants. To radius 10,00000, and to every degree and minute of the quadrant. Also, chiliad, or the logarithms of absolute numbers, [fr]om a unte to 1000, with a table of the right-ascension and declination of the sun: and certain principal stars that are most in use. Whereunto is added the farther use of the forenamed tables in questions that concern navigation, astronomy, and geography; as also an universal almanack.
