...terms 4 and 3, and the mean terms 2 and 6. These results prove, that, if four numbers be in proportion, the product of the two extreme terms is equal to the product of the two mean terms: a principle of great practical utility, and the foundation of the ancient RULE OF THREE. It follows from... | |

..."is to," "as," are replaced by dots, for shortness, thus, 18 : ß :: 12 : 4.* 16. In a proportion, the product of the two extreme terms is equal to the product of the two middle or mean terms. Thus in the proportion 18 : 6 :: 12 ; 4, the product of 4 and 18 is equal to... | |

...means, 3 and 8. 28. Hence we deduce an important principle, viz. THAT IN EVERY GEOMETRICAL PROPORTION THE PRODUCT OF THE TWO EXTREME TERMS IS EQUAL TO THE PRODUCT OF THE TWO MEAN TERMS. 29. For example, 4 : 5 : : 8 : 10. Here the product of the two extremes, 4 and 10, is 40, and the product... | |
