On the boundary-surface we have the " hypothesis of the right angle." Rectangles can be formed, and the area of a rectangle is proportional to the product of its base and altitude, while the area of a triangle is half of the area of a rectangle having...

...of the same height. (This is evident from looking at the figure, and from Query 12, Sect. II.) 2d. The area of a triangle is half of the area of a parallelogram upon the same basis and of the same height. Thus the area of a triangle is found by multiplying... | |
