Seite 93 - If a straight line be bisected and produced to any point, the square on the whole line thus produced, and the square on the part of it produced, are together double of the square on half the line bisected, and of the square on the line made up of the half and the part produced. Let the straight line AB be bisected in C, and produced to D ; The squares on AD and DB shall be together double of the squares on AC and CD. CONSTRUCTION. — From the point C draw CE at right angles to AB, and make it equal...
