An elementary mathematics textbook for textile students, Part I of two, written by a Dundee weaving instructor and a textile-engineering draughtsman. It covers algebraic signs, brackets and symbolic notation, then the mensuration of rectangles, triangles, quadrilaterals, polygons, circles, arcs and sectors, gear wheels, rectangular solids, specific gravity, prisms, cylinders, pyramids, cones and spheres. Worked examples draw on textile practice such as yarn counts, loom speed, take-up rollers, cloth costs, bobbins and sizing machines. A chapter-by-chapter set of exercises with answers closes the book.
