onals, the triangles shall be equiangular, andhave their equal angles opposite to the homologous sides. Let the triangles ABC,DEF have their sides proporlionals, so thatAB is to BC, as DE to EF; and BC to CA, as EF to FD; and con-sequently, ex asquali, BA to AC, as ED to DF; the triangle ABC… … At the points E, F, in thestraight line EF, make (23. 1.)tlie angle FEG equal to the an*gle ABC, and the angle EFG e-qual to BCA, Mherefore the re-maining angle BAG is equal tothe remaining angle EGF (33.1.),and the triangle ABC is there-fore equiangular to the triangleGEF; and consequently…
