ases are as the squares of their radii(b. v., p. 13); and the cylinders being similar, the radii oftheir bases are to each other as their altitudes (i). 2);hence, the bases are as the squares of the altitudes; there-fore, the bases multiplied by the altitudes, or the cylindersthemselv^es, are as… … TKOrOSITION III.
