greaterthan the v.hole EFGH; but it is also equctl to it, which is OF EUCLID. 28-5 impossible: therefore the straight line KA is not equal to B. Xll. But let KA be less than LE, and make LM equal to KA,and from the centre L, and distance LM, describe the circleMNOP, meeting the straight lines LE,… … >ABCD, MNOP are equal; therefore the circumference AD isgreater than MP; for the same reason, the circumference BCis greater than NO; and because the straight line AB is greaterthan EF, which is greater than MN, much more is AB greaterthan MN : therefore the circumference AB is greater than…
