This chapter applies our general approximation Theorem 71 for surfaces in E3. In Sect. 26.1, we deal with a surface S approximated by another one, closely near it. In Sect. 26.2, we assume that the approximating surface is a triangulation. Finally, in Sect. 26.2.3, we assume that the triangulation is inscribed in S. We get sharper and sharper approximation and convergence results [34], [35].
