CONSTRUCTION OF THE CANON. 39


to the proportion of a hundred to one; and the triple of the same, namely 69077527.02, will be the difference of all logarithms whose sines are in the ratio of a thousand to one; and so of the ratio ten thousand to one, and of the others as below.
53.Whence all sines in a ratio Sea of the ratios two to one and ten to one, have the difference of their logarithms formed from the differences 6931469.22 and 23025842.34 in the way shown in the following

54.To find the logarithms of all sines which are outside the limits of the Radical table.
This is easily done by multiplying the given sine by 2, 4, 8, 10, 20, 40, 80, 100, 200, or any other proportional number you please, contained in the short table, until you obtain a number within the limits of the Radical table. By 50
