16884An ESSAY
Draw two right Lines, making a right Angle
with each other; in one of which, aſſume P E,
equal to the Height of the given Point, above
the Geometrical Plane: Then draw the Line
E C thro’ the Point E; making an Angle with
C P, equal to the Sun’s Altitude; and make A B
equal to C P. Find the Appearance of the Point
B; and the Repreſentation ſought, will be
had.
