The standard elliptic functions satisfy special identities collected in Corollary C.4 ,where1 −k 2
is the complementary elliptic modulus . Similarly, we summarize addition formulae of elliptic func-
tions in Corollary C.5 .
Corollary C.4 (Special identities).

Series expansions of “sinus amplitudinis”, “cosinus amplitudinis”, and “delta amplitudinis” are
useful in Mathematical Cartography. In the following Corollary C.6 , series expansions of “sinus
amplitudinis”, “cosinus amplitudinis”, and “delta amplitudinis” are summarized.

In analysis, we have been made familiar with integrals of type R ( x, ax 2 +2 bx + c )d x
whose ker nel is a square root of a polynomial up to degree two like d x/x, d x/ (1 + x 2 ),
or d x/ 1
x 2 . Those integrals can be integrated, for exa mple, to ln x , arctan x ,ora rc-
sin x . Alternatively, if the integral is of the form R ( x, a 4 x 4 + a 3 x 3 + a 2 x 2 + a 1 x + a 0 )d x
