It also solves the equation sin x = a cos x and finds the formula:
equation sin x = a cos x - AL-BATANI

and using al-Marwazi's notion of tangent in developing equations for calculating tangent, cotangen and compiling tangent count tables.

Al Battani works in Syria, precisely in ar-Raqqah and in Damascus, which is also the place of his death.
