For the fast-rotating slightly compressed three-axis solid body (the Earth), approximate equations of rotation have been formulated and solved. The solution obtained is compact and highly accurate. Fast rotation provides a possibility of reducing the problem of finding equatorial components of the angular velocity of rotation of a body with low second compression to the problem of the two-axis body rotation with changed dynamic compression value.
