...All the radii of a sphere are equal; all the diameters aie also equal, and each double of the radius. 3. It will be shown (Prop. I.), that every section...section made by a plane is called a small circle. 4. A plane touches a sphere, when it meets the sphere, but, being produced, does not cut it. 5. The... | |
