,we have by § 56, Ex. 4, MX. MX : iVX.Ji/X = MA^ : NA^.In the same way we may show that Xr. iW : L7.LY = Nm : LB^;and LZ. LZ : MZ. MZ = LC^: MC\ A TETRAGRAM. 95 But since ABC is a transversal of the triangle LM\, we have by § 104,MA NB LC_ Hence NA ■LB ■ MC MX.NY.LZ MX. NY. LZNX.LY.MZNX.LY.

If we take the line at infinity instead of the line XYZ, the points X, Y,Z become respectively the middle points of AAI, BB, CC and thus we havethe theorem of § 151. 154.
