Page 72 - ABC be a triangle, and DE a straight line drawn parallel to the base BC ; then will AD : DB : : AE : EC.
Page 19 - The line joining the middle points of two sides of a triangle is parallel to the third side and equal to half of the third side.
Page 55 - All the interior angles of any rectilineal figure, together with four right angles, are equal to twice as many right angles as the figure has sides.
Page 26 - Prove that three times the sum of the squares on the sides of a triangle is equal to four times the sum of the squares on the lines drawn from the vertices to the middle points of the opposite sides.
Page 73 - If three quantities are in continued proportion, the first is to the third as the square of the first is to the square of the second. Let a : b = b : c. Then, 2=*. b с Therefore, ^xb. = ^x± b с bb Or °r

Page 24 - If from the middle point of one of the sides of a right-angled triangle, a perpendicular be drawn to the hypotenuse, the difference of the squares on the segments into which it is divided, is equal to the square on the other side.
Page 2 - Of all triangles having the same vertical angle, and whose bases pass through a given point, the least is that whose base is bisected in the given point.
