Spherical Trigonometry is used,
To divine Positions Planetary.
The planets orbit is an ellipse,
With the Sun at the foci.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Trigonon in Greek,
Trikona is Sanskrit means triangle,
Trikona Mithi became Trigonometry,
As Jya mithi became Geometry !<\/p>\n\n\n\n

So a new factor is introducedm
For measuring longitudes,
Chuthi, Eccentricty, e,
Which is 0 to 1 at ellipse.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

0 at Circle and One at parabola,
And more than One at Hyperbola,
To compute Anomaly,
( Angle between Perihelion and Position,)
Kepler brought in an auxiliary angle.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Eccentric Anomaly, E
M = E- E sine
Was equation given by him
To find Anomaly true !<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In the Indian, two Anomalies are computed,
Manda and Sheeghra Anomalies,
Relating to Mandoccha and Sheeghrocha,
Aphelion and Perihelion !<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Manda Anomaly is computed,
By x = R e Sin M
And planetary distance,
By y = Re Cos M !<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Reduction to Ecliptic,
By sin h = 1 – cos l Sin Y Cosy \/cos l
Y being Vipata Kendra,
Angle between Position and Node !<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Trig formula for Chara,
Angle of Ascensional Difference,
The Difference between Right and Oblique Ascensions,
By Sin c = Tan Lat tan Decl !<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Trig formula for Soorya Kranti,
Angle of Solar Declination,
By Sin J = Sin L Sin w,
Where w is Sun’s max decl !<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Trig formula for Madhya Lagna,
Medium Caeli or Meridian Cusp,
( Dasama Bhava Sphuta )
By Tan K = Tan R \/cos w
Where R is Sayana Ravi Madhyamam !<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The simple Geometrical Model,
The Geometrical Model of Parameshwara,
Happens to be the simplest,
And the most accurate !<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
