الصفحة 197 - IF two triangles have two sides of the one equal to two sides of the other, each to each ; and have likewise the angles contained by those sides equal to one another ; they shall likewise have their bases, or third sides, equal ; and the two triangles shall be equal ; and their other angles shall be equal, each to each, viz.
الصفحة 179 - The diameter of a sphere is any straight line which passes through the centre, and is terminated both ways by the superficies of the sphere.
الصفحة 190 - The sum of the three sides of a spherical triangle is less than the circumference of a great circle. Let ABC be any spherical triangle; produce the sides AB, AU, till they meet again in D.

الصفحة 181 - ... poles. 751. COR. 2. All great circles of a sphere are equal. 752. COR. 3. Every great circle bisects the sphere. For the two parts into which the sphere is divided can be .so placed that they .will coincide; otherwise there would be points on the surface unequally distant from the centre. 753. COR. 4. Two great circles bisect each other. For the intersection of their planes passes through the centre, and is, therefore, a diameter of each circle. 754.
