...surfaces of two similar triangles is equal to the ratio of the squares of the homologous sides. But, two similar polygons may be decomposed into the same number of triangles similar each to each, and having the same ratio of similarity ; therefore, as the ratio of the surfaces of two homologous triangles... | |
