Pagina 59 - After remarking that the mathematician positively knows that the sum of the three angles of a triangle is equal to two right angles...
Pagina 72 - The straight line joining the middle points of two sides of a triangle is parallel to the third side, and equal to half of it.
Pagina 322 - Hence the two last are right angles ; hence the arc drawn from the vertex of an isosceles spherical triangle to the middle of the base, is at right angles to the base, and bisects the vertical angle.
Pagina 58 - If two triangles have two sides of the one respectively equal to two sides of the other, and the included angles unequal, the triangle which has the greater included angle has the greater third side.
Pagina 336 - The surface of a sphere is equal to the product of its diameter by the circumference of a great circle.
Pagina 329 - Theorem.—If two triangles have two sides of the one respectively equal to two sides of the other, and the included angles unequal, the third sides are unequal, and the greater third side belongs to the triangle having the greater included angle.
Pagina 316 - The centre of the sphere is the vertex of the pyramid, and the spherical polygon is the base of the pyramid.
