PARTICULAR RULES.

To measure a field or piece, of ground, which is Square, or whofe oppofite fides are alike.

RULE. Take the dimenfions in rods, and multiply the length by the breadth, and divide the product by 160; and the quotient will be

acres.

EXAMPLE,

How many acres are there in a field, whofe length is 35 rods, and breadth 24 rods? 35X24-840; and 8401605 acres. Ans. The diameter of a circle being given, to find the circumference.

RULE. As 7 is to 22; or more exactly, as 113 is to 355; fo is the diameter of a circle to the circumference.

The circumference of a circle being given, to find the diameter.

RULE. As 22 is to 7; or 355 to 113; fo is the circumference to the diameter.

To find the folid feet in a grindstone.

RULE. Take the dimenfions in inches, and multiply half the diameter by half the circumference, and that product multiplied by the thicknefs will give the folid inches; which, divided by 1728, will give the folid feet.

How many folid feet in a grindftone 42 inches diameter, 132 inches in circumference, and 9 inches thick?

Half the diameter 42 is 21; and half the circumference 132 is 66. Therefore 21.669 12474 the folid inches; and 12474÷17287 folid feet,and 378 folid inches over.
