bases multiplied by the slant height. PEOPOSITION V. THEOEEM. If the three faces ichich include a triedrcd angle of a prism areequcd to the three faces ichich include a triedral angle of asecond p)risni, each to each, and are like placed, the twoprisms are equal. Let B and h be the vertices of two… … 181 then, since the triedral angles at h and B are equal, thoparallelogram Ih will coincide with i>//, and the parallelo-gram hf w-ith BF. But the two upper bases being equalto their corresponding lower bases, are equal to each other,and consequently, will coincide : hence, hi Avill coincidewith…
