Abstract
May 18, 1686. Some of this Society having considered that place of Tacquet's Geometry, mentioned in the Minutes of the Dublin Society of March ye 8th. observed that there is this difference betwixt Mr. Caswell's first Problem and Tacquet's ; viz. that in each of Tacquet's Triangles there is one side and 2 Angles given, which is an ordinary case of Trigonometry: But none of Mr. Caswell's Triangles has one side and 2 angles, or 2 sides and one angle, or 3 sides given; and this makes a greater difference in the Solutions than that mentioned, in those minutes.
