Página 45 - If two triangles have two angles of the one equal to two angles of the other, each to each ; and one side equal to one side, viz.
Página 142 - In every triangle, the square on the side subtending an acute angle, is less than the squares on the sides containing that angle, by twice the rectangle contained by either of these sides, and the straight line intercepted between the perpendicular let fall on it from the opposite angle, and the acute angle.
