Seite 70 - A CIRCLE is a plane figure, bounded by a curved, line, every point of which is equally distant from a point within, called the centre.
Seite 45 - Similar rectilineal figures are those which have their several angles equal, each to each, and the sides about the equal angles proportionals. II. " Reciprocal figures, viz. triangles and parallelograms, " are such as have their sides about two of their " angles proportionals in such a manner, that a side
Seite 11 - A diameter of a circle is a straight line drawn through the centre, and terminated both ways by the circumference.
Seite 35 - From this it is manifest, that the straight line which is drawn at right angles to the diameter of a circle from the extremity .of it, touches the circle; and that it touches it only in one point, because, if it did meet the circle in two, it would fall within it (2. 3.) ' Also it is evident that there can be but one straight line which touches the circle in the same point.
