Side xxiv - A diameter of a circle is a straight line drawn through the centre, and terminated both ways by the circumference. XVIII. A semicircle is the figure contained by a diameter and the part of the circumference cut off by the diameter. XIX. "A segment of a circle is the figure contained by a straight line, and the circumference it cuts off.
Side 72 - The straight line drawn at right angles to the diameter of a circle, from the extremity of it, falls without the circle...
Side 31 - The complements of the parallelograms, which are about the diameter of any parallelogram, are equal to one another.
Side 146 - If two triangles have one angle of the one equal to one angle of the other and the sides about these equal angles proportional, the triangles are similar.
Side 25 - And because the angle ABC is equal to the angle BCD, and the angle CBD to the angle ACB, therefore the whole angle ABD is equal to the whole angle ACD • (ax.
Side 6 - To bisect a given finite straight line, that is, to divide it into two equal parts. Let AB be the given straight line : it is required to divide it intotwo equal parts.
Side 71 - DH; (I. def. 15.) therefore DH is greater than DG, the less than the greater, which is impossible : therefore no straight line can be drawn from the point A, between AE and the circumference, which does not cut the circle : or, which amounts to the same thing, however great an acute angle a straight line makes with the diameter at the point A, or however small an angle it makes with AE, the circumference must pass between that straight line and the perpendicular AE.
Side 97 - To describe a square about a given circle. Let ABCD be the given circle ; it is required to describe a square about it. . Draw two diameters AC, BD of the circle ABCD, at right angles to one another, and through the points A, B, • 17.3. C, D, draw...
Side 5 - ... equal to them, of the other. Let ABC, DEF be two triangles which have the two sides AB, AC equal to the two sides DE, DF, each to each, viz. AB equal to DE, and AC to DF ; but the base CB greater than the base EF ; the angle BAC is likewise greater than the angle EDF.
Side 86 - From a given circle to cut off a segment, which shall contain an angle equal to a given rectilineal angle.
