Extract

This paper contains an attempt to exhibit the mutual relations of some of the more important of the various processes which have been employed in solving one of the most celebrated problems of Dynamics. The Quaternion analysis has been throughout used, as far more briefly comprehensive and more suggestively expressive than the ordinary Cartesian analysis.
