Σελίδα 148 - The areas of two triangles which have an angle of the one equal to an angle of the other are to each other as the products of the sides including the equal angles. D c A' D' Hyp. In triangles ABC and A'B'C', ZA = ZA'. To prove AABC = ABxAC. A A'B'C' A'B'xA'C' Proof. Draw the altitudes BD and B'D'.

Σελίδα 142 - THEOREM. If two triangles on the same sphere, or on equal spheres, are mutually equiangular, they will also be mutually equilateral. Let A and B be the two given triangles; P and Q their polar triangles. Since the angles are equal in the triangles A and B, the sides will be equal in. their polar triangles P and Q (Prop.
