Practicall geometry [electronic resource] : in two parts: the first, shewing how to perform the foure species of arithmeticke, (viz: addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division) together with reduction, and the rule of proportion in figures. The second, containing a hundred geometricall questions, with their solutions & demonstrations, some of them being performed arithmetically, and others geometrically, yet all without the help of algebra. A worke very necessary for all men, but principally for surveyors of land, engineers, military architects, and all other students in the mathematicks. By Captain Thomas Rudd, chiefe engineer to his late Majestie.
