7. Things which are halves of the same thing , are equal to one another . 8. Two
magnitudes , lines , surfaces , or solids , are equal , if , when applied to each
other , they coincide throughout their whole extent . They then fill the same space

Magnitudes are said to be of the same kind , when the less can be multiplied so
as to exceed the greater ; and it is only such magnitudes that are said to have a
ratio to one another . 5. If there be four magnitudes , and if any equimultiples ...

Side 102
If three magnitudes are continual proportionals , the ratio of the first to the third is
said to be duplicate of the ratio of the first to the second . Thus , if A be to B as B to
C , the ratio of A to C is said to be duplicate “ of the ratio of A to B. Hence , since ...
