This paper describes a method for solving some problems involving discontinuities in waveguides. As an example of the applicatlo~ of the method, the trifurcated waveguide is treated. It is suggested that the tnfurcallon can be cons1dered to be two bifurcations in tandem. It is shown that the solution to the trifurcation problem, which is difficult to obtain, can be written in terms of the solution to the bifurcation, which is relatively easy to obtain. Numerical results are included.
