Sum of them will be the Logarithm of the Number produced by that Multiplication Example Let it be required to Multiply 48 by 5 First set down the Two Numbers to be Multiplied One under another and to them set their respective Logarithms as in the Margin which being added together the Sum of them which is the Logarithm of the Product being sought in the Table the Absolute Number answering thereto is 240 the Product of those Two Numbers Multiplied together 48 1,68124 5 0,69897 240 2,38021 Division by the Logarithms AS Multiplication by the Logarithms was performed by Addition so Division is performed by Subtraction Wherefore to perform Division you must Subtract the Logarithm of the Number by which you are to Divide from the Logarithm of the Number which is to be Divided and the Number which remains shall be the Logarithm of the Quotient Example Let it be required to Divide 228 by 12 228.2,35793 12.1,07918 19.1,27875 First set down the Logarithm of 228 and under it set the Logarithm of 12 and Subtract the Lesser from the Greater the Remainder is the Logarithm of the Quotient which being sought in the Table you will find 19 to be the Answer of the Question being the Quotient sought And so many times is 12 contained in 228. Of a CIRCLE 1. The Diameter being given to find the Circumference by the Logarithms THe Proportion is as 7 to 22 so is the Diameter to the Circumference Wherefore to find the Circumference of any Circle whose Diameter is given Add the Logarithm of the Diameter given to the Logarithm of 22 and from the Sum of them Subtract the Logarithm of 7 the Remainder shall be the Logatithm of the Circumference sought Example If the Diameter of a Circle be 113 what is the Circumference First set down the Logarithm of 22 which is 1,34242 2,05308 3,39550 0,84510 2,55040 Add the Logarithm of 113 which is from which Subtract the Logarithm of 7 which is which being sought in the Tables is the nearest Logarithm of 355 and so much is the Circumference of a Circle whose Diameter is 113. 2. The Circumference of a Circle being given to find the Diameter The Proportion is as 22 is to 7 so is the Circumference to the Diameter Wherefore to the Logarithm of 7 add the Logarithm of the Circumference given and from the Sum Subtract the Logarithm of 22 the Remainder shall be the Logarithm of the Diameter Example If the Circumference of a Circle be 355 what is the Diameter thereof First set down the Logarithm of 7. which is 0,84510 2,55023 3,39533 1,34242 2,05291 and to it add the Logarithm of 355 from which Subtract the Logarithm of 22 and the Remainder is the nearest Logarithm of 113 which is the Diameter required 3. The Diameter of a Circle being given to find the Area or Superficial Content thereof The Proportion is as 28 is to 22 so is the Square of the Diameter to the Area Wherefore to the Logarithm of 22 add the Logarithm of the Diameter doubled and from the Sum subtract the Logarithm of 28 the Remainder shall be the Logarithm of the Area required Example If the Diameter of a Circle be 12 what is the Area or Superficial Content thereof First set down the Logarithm of 22 which is 1,34242 1,07918 1,07918 3,50078 1,44716 2,05362 and to that the Logarithm of 12 the given Diameter set down Twice Add all Three together from which Subtract the Logarithm of 28 The Remainder is the nearest Logarithm to the Number 113 and some small matter more is the Area of that Circle 4. The Circumference of a Circle being given to find the Area The proportion is as 88 is to 7 so is the Square of the Circumference to the Area Wherefore to the Logarithm of 7 add the Logarithm of the Circumference Twice and from the Sum Subtract the Logarithm of 88 the Remainder shall be the Logarithm of the Area required Example If the Circumference of a Circle be 38 what is the Area thereof First set down the Logarithm of 7 which is 0,84510 To which add the Logarithm of 1,57978 the Circumference Twice 1,57978 The Sum 4,00466 Subtract the Logarithm of 88 1,94448 the Remainder is the nearest Logarithm of 115 the Area sought 2,06018 CHAP. IV. CONTAINING Geometrical Rudiments Useful in the Art of GUNNERY How to raise a Perpendicular from the middle of a Line given LEt the Line given be A. B. and let C be a Point therein given from which it is required to raise a Perpendicular First therefore open the Compasses to any convenient distance and setting one Foot in the Point C with the other set off on either side thereof the equal distances C A and C B then opening the Compasses to any convenient wider distance setting one Foot in the Point A with the other strike the Occult Arch at F the● with the same distance set one Foot in the Point B and with the other draw the Arch F crossing E in the Point D from whence draw the Line DC which Line is a Perpendicular unto the given Line A B as was required To let a Perpendicular fall from a Point assigned to the middle of a Line given Let the Line given whereupon you would have a Perpendicular let fall be the Line B C D and the Point A to be the Point assigned from whence you would have the Perpendicular let fall from the given line B C D First set one Foot of your Compasses in the Point A and opening them to any convenient distance so that it be more than the line A C Describe one Arch of a Circle with the other Foot so that it may cut the line B C D twice that is at E and at F then find the middle between these which will be the Point C from which Point draw the line at C which is the Perpendicular which was to be let fall To raise a Perpendicular upon the end of a Line given Suppose the line whereupon you would have the Perpendicular raised be the line A B first open your Compasses to a convenient distance and set one Foot in the Point B and let the other Foot fall any where above the line as at the Point D and in that Point let one Foot of your Compasses remain turning the other about until it touch the line A B in the Point E then turn the same Foot of the Compasses towards C and draw an Occult Arch and lay the Edge of a Ruler to those Two Points E and D and where the same edge of the Ruler doth cut the Arch C from that Point draw the line C B which shall be a Perpendicular at the end of the line A B. To let fall a Perpendicular from a Point assigned unto the end of a Line given Let the line A B be given unto which it is required to let a Perpendicular fall from the assigned point D unto the end A. First from the assigned point D draw a line unto any point of
the given line A B which may be the line D C E then find the middle of the line D E which is at C place one foot of your Compasses in that point and extend the other foot unto D or E with which distance draw the Semicircle D A E which shall cut the given line A B in the point A from which point draw the Line D A which is the Perpendicular let fall from the assigned point D on the end of the given line A B as was required To draw a Line Parallel to a Line given Let A B be a Line given whereunto it is required to draw a Parallel First set one Foot of the Compasses in the point C and opening the other Foot at pleasure draw the Arch E then with the same distance set one Foot in the point D and draw the other Arch F. Lastly lay a Rule to the convexities of both those Arches and draw the line G H which shall be a Parallel to A B as was required A Geometrical Problem useful in the Art of Gunnery A Geometrical way to find the Diameter of any Bullet that weighteth twice as much as a known Bullet TAke the Diameter of the lesser Bullet whose weight you know and square that Diameter viz. Make a Geometrical Square each side to be equal to the Diameter of the Bullet given then draw a Diagotal line from either of the Two opposite Angles and that Diagonal shall be the Diameter of a Bullet twice the weight of the other then divide the said Diagonal into Two equal parts setting one Foot of the Compasses in the midst of that Diagonal and with the other Foot describe a Circle and that Circumference will represent a Bullet twice as much weight as the other The sight of the Annexed Figure is a sufficient Explanation A B is the Diameter of the lesser Bullet A C the Diameter of the greater Performed by Arithmetick Suppose the Diameter of the lesser Bullet be Five Inches the Square thereof is Twenty Five the Double of it is Fifty the Root thereof is 7 1 7 and so much is the Diameter of the greater Bullet The weight of any Shot given to find the Diameter Geometrically Suppose a Shot be One Two or Three Pound weight of Metal or Stone assigned if one Pound divide the Diameter into Four parts and Five such parts will make the Diameter of a Shot of the said Metal or Stone that shall weigh just Two Pound Divide the Diameter of a Shot weighing just Two Pound in Seven equal parts and Eight such parts will make a Diameter of a Shot of Three Pound And divide the Diameter of a Shot of Three Pound into Ten equal parts and Eleven such maketh a Shot of Four Pound Divide the Diameter of a Shot of Four Pound into Thirteen parts Fourteen such parts will make a Diameter for a Shot of Five Pound And so dividing each next Diamter into Three equal parts more the next Lesser was divided into and it will with one part added from a Diameter of a Shot that will weigh just one Pound more So you may proceed infinitely increasing or decreasing by taking one part less than it is appointed to be divided into CHAP.

Let it be required to find the Logarithmical Number belonging to 16 turn to the Table in the First Column of the First Page where you will find 16 under the Letter N. and right against it towards the Right hand you shall find this Number 1,20412 which is the Logarithm thereof Likewise in the same Page and Column against 25 you will find 1,39794 which is the Logarithm thereof Also you shall by the same Rule find that The Logarithm of 4 will be 0,60206 The Logarithm of 51 will be 1,70757 The Logarithm of 321 will be 2,50650 and by the Converse of what is here delivered you may find the Absolute Number answering to any given Logarithms as in the following Proposition Prop. 2. A Logarithmical Number being given to find the Absolute Number thereunto belonging Let it be required to find the Absolute Number belonging to this Logarithm 1,20412 look in the Table in the First Page thereof and casting your Eye down among the Numbers under the word Logar you will find this Number 16 to stand just against it on the Left Hand which is the Absolute Number of that Logarithm The same is to be understood of all other Numbers comprised in the foregoing Table Observing this Caution when you have a Logarithmical Number given which when you look for you cannot find in the Table you must then take the nearest Number thereto and the Absolute Number which stands against it is the nearest less whole Number which you must take As for Example If you have this Logarithmical Number 0,63258 which if you look for in the Table you cannot find it therefore you must take the nearest less Number which you will find to be 0,60206 and right against it on the Left hand you will find to be 4 the nearest Absolute Number to that Logarithm Let this suffice for the Description next follows the Use The Vse of the Table of Logarithms in Arithmetick which shall be exemplified in Questions of Multiplication Division and the Extracting the Square and Cube Roots being such parts of Arithmetick which tend wholly to the matter intended in this Treatise and therefore I shall begin with Multiplication Multiplication by the Logarithms YOu must add the Logarithms of the Two Numbers to be Multiplied together and the
