Now let us suppose , if it be possible , that the lines , when produced , separate from each other at a point C , the one becoming CD and the other CE . At the point C , let CF be drawn , so as to make the angle ACF a right angle ...

For if CB is not the line AC produced , let CE be that line produced ; then , ACE being a straight line , the angles ACD , DCE , are together equal to two right angles ( 28 ) ; but , by hypothesis , the angles ACD , DCB , are together ...
