ven angle x (see Problem XVII). 2. In A draw a perpendicular, AD, equal to the givenheight mn, and through D draw DE parallel to AB. 16* 186 GEOMETRY. 3. From C and E, where this parallel cuts the segment,draw the straight lines CA, CB, EA, BE ; either of thetwo triangles ACB, AEB, will be the one… … r 7 Solution. Let AB be the given basis, x the angleopposite to it; and let the two remaining sides bear toeach other the same ratio which exists between the twolines mn and rq. 1. Upon AB describe a segment of a circle capableof the given angle x (see Problem XVII). 2. In B make an angle, ABE,…
