Seite 18 - LET it be granted that a straight line may be drawn from any one point to any other point.
Seite 17 - When equals are taken from unequals, the remainders are unequal. 6. Things which are double of the same thing, or equal things, are equal to each other.
Seite 86 - III.), is a circle. If the plane pass through the centre, then, as every point in the surface of the sphere is equidistant from its centre, the section is a plane figure, every point of whose periphery is equidistant from a certain point within it, and the figure is therefore a circle. But if the plane do not pass through...
Seite 26 - Therefore all the interior angles of the figure, together with four right angles, are equal to twice as many right angles as the figure has sides.
