draw (31. 1.) GH paral-lel to BC: and.because BC is atright angles to ED and DA: BC isat right angles (4. 11.) to the planepassing through ED, DA. AndGH is parallel to BC; but, if twostraight lines be parallel, one ofwhich is at right angles to a plane,the other shall be at right (8. 11.) angles to… … 166 THE ELEMENTS OF EUCLID. BOOK XI. DA, meets it: therefore GH is perpendicular to AF; and conse-quently AF is perpendicular to GH, and AF is perpendicular toDE: therefore AF is perpendicular to each of the straight linesGH, DE. But if a straight line stands at right angles to each oftwo straight…
