The containing area is composed of three squares, but the analysis of details is unusually complicated. If a whirling rectangle be applied at the bottom of the central square, the intersection of the… … this perpendicular is .3504 (the reciprocal of 2.854). The diameter of the foot is .3504X3, or 1.0512. The diameter of the bowl is, 2.3504, i. e., two squares plus the ratio .3504.
