Page 167 - If two polygons are composed of the same number of triangles, similar each to each and similarly placed, the polygons are similar.
Page 139 - A line parallel to one side of a triangle divides the other two sides proportionally.
Page 187 - Any two rectangles are to each other as the products of their bases by their altitudes.
Page 202 - In any triangle, the square of the side opposite an acute angle is equal to the sum of the squares of the other two sides diminished by twice the product of one of those sides and the projection of the other upon that side.
Page 180 - In an inscribed quadrilateral, the product of the diagonals is equal to the sum of the products of the opposite sides.
Page 90 - In the same circle, or in equal circles, equal chords are equally distant from the center; and, conversely, chords equally distant from the center are equal.
