Next: Expanding R as a Up: Appendix II Power series Previous: The inverse of as

Expanding L, the distance along the central meridian from the equator.

As we showed previously, (55)
equation924
Again we can perform the same change of variables as previously so...
eqnarray926
Where
equation928

Using this to expand tex2html_wrap_inline1371 we get...
eqnarray930

By inverting the derivative of L with respect to tex2html_wrap_inline1239 we can use it to expand tex2html_wrap_inline1239 in terms of L.


equation932

So...
eqnarray934
