Right triangle ABC with angles A, B, C to be used for finding distance across a river. This is a trigonometry problem. Wishing to determine the width of the river, I observed a tree standing directly across on the bank. The angle of elevation of the top of the tree was 32 degrees. At 150 ft. back from this point and in the same direction from the tree the angle of elevation of the top of the tree was 21 degrees. Find the width of the river.

Coordinate axis with angle XOP equal to theta, Θ, and angle XOQ=180 - Θ. From any point in the terminal side of XOP, as B, a perpendicular can be drawn, AB, to the x-axis; and from D, any point in the terminal side o f XOQ, perpendicular CD can be drawn to the x-axis. The right triangles OAB and OCD are similar. Also, OA, AB, OB, CD, and OD are positive, while OC is negative.

Lines for the detection of astigmatism. "The refracting surfaces of the eye acting together are equivalent in refracting power to a single, spherical surface of fairly short curvature. Frequently, however, the result is not the same as would be given by a perfect spherical surface, owing to inequalities in the curvature of the eye. In one direction the curvature may be greater than that at right angles to it. This tendency to a cylindrical form is called astigmatism. It interferes with the formation of perfect images and sometimes leads to serious eye strain in the effort to better the vision. Astigmatism may be detected by looking at black lines radiating from a point or at fine black concentric circles. Portions of the liens or circles appear gray and others black; the gray portions are out of focus. This defect is corrected by proper cylindrical glasses which equalize the curvature of the eye" — Newell, 1900
