Some Algorithms pertaining to A ronomy . Declination ; Hour Angle t; Azimuth a; Altitude h; Latitude ; Ecliptic & Solar Latitude .

de . To reckon latitude by observation: : arctan [tan /cos t]-arctan [cos a/tan h] =arctan [tan h/cos a]-arctan [cos t/tan ] sin = sin a sin h/ tan t sin = sin h/ cos [ when on meridian] radius of arc = sin t cos / sin a sin h sin =sin sin sin a cos h = sin t cos sin a= sin t cos /cos h cos h=sin t cos / sin a cos = sin a sin h/ sin t sin t= sin a sin h/ cos The quation of Time Tan difference=sin cos /cos ? To reckon time of a given Zenith Distance from Noon: Cos t=[cos -.sin .sin. .]/cos .-sin To reckon the time when the sun shines at a given a on a given at a given : by entering altitude until declination= Sin =sin h sin +cos h cos cos a Cos t=[sin h-sin sin ]/cos cos Sin h=sin sin +cos cos cos t Cos a=[sin -sin sin h]/cos cos h ___________________________________________________ Synodic Periods: x>y: xy/[x-y]
