Abstract. In previous article we have considered attached to elliptic singular moduli kr, the parameter wr, in which if one knows its value then can evaluate explicit the elliptic singular moduli and the fifth degree singular moduli k25r in radicals. In the present article we give modular equations of this parameter wr and a table of some lower values and use this parameter to solve the Rogers-Ramanujan continued fraction.
