Then, by dieabove notation, die co-ordinates of tlie point A areKG=^a, GE=^b, EA = c. The co-ordinatesof tlie point c are KH=x, Hf^=y, fc^z, and Ac = s. From this… … s = ^/{x — af-\-{y—bf-\-{z—cf, as in [12]. f (13c) If the line A c represents the force S, it niiglit be resolved, as m note 13«, intotlii-ee forces, AD, D d, dc, pai-allel to the axes x, y, z, respecdvely ; consequently diese du-ee forces will be represented by S Ac S. —r— ; S.-r- ; which, by…
