It may be represented by $Δ\_n+1 = Δ\_n - (Sin n. α)/(Sin α) Δ\_n = Sin n. α - Sin (n-1)α,$ This is given ostensibly for the formation of the table, but the table actually given cannot be obtained from the formula. - [Previous: c6.12](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.science.kaye-1915.c6.12) - [Next: c6.14](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.science.kaye-1915.c6.14) - [Up: c6](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.science.kaye-1915.c6) --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/ins.science.kaye-1915.c6.13](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.science.kaye-1915.c6.13) · Pramāṇa
