Then VS = v, VB = r, SR = d, RVS = e. Then in the right triangle RVS,by [39], sin SB = sinVS x sinBVS,or sin d = sin v sin e. Also, by [40], cos BVS = tan BV cot VS,or cos e = tan r cot v. .-. tan r = tan v cos e. 29. Given e = 23° 27, the lati-tude of a star 51°, its longitude315°; find its… … Here VT = 315°,TM = 51°,BVT= 23° 27;to find VB = r,and BM = d.
