Seite 295 - BAE; and they are in one plane, which is impossible. Also, from a point above a plane, there can be but one perpendicular to that plane ; for, if there could be two, they would be parallel (6. PI.) to one another, which is absurd. Therefore, from the same point, &c.
Seite 279 - AB, CD. In like manner, it may be proved, that FE makes right angles with every straight line which meets it in that plane. But a straight line is at right angles to a plane when it makes right angles with every straight line which meets it in that plane : (xi. def. 3.) therefore EF is at right angles to the plane in which are AB, CD. Wherefore, if a straight line, &c.
