Problem how to describe a
triangle having its three
sides equal. Description of the

Contrivance.

Draw two circles by
the same radius: all the
radii that can be drawn
whether in the one or in the
other will be equal. [+]

The first circle you
draw will give you two
radii that will form two
sides of your triangle: the
second will you the third circle will give you a
line which will make the third
side: the position of it
must be such, that its two
points join the one of them
the one, the others the others
of the two sides with
which you were furnished
by the first triangle

Of In these
two triangles one line namely
that which served as a
radius for drawing them
is common to both: and
to this line the two other
lines one being a radius
of the one circle the
other a radius of the
other can not but be equal

For drawing a three
sided figure with its
sides all equal to
one another, the contrivance
consists in the
drawing of two circles
by means of the same
right line the first
circle being drawn by
keeping the left end
fixt while the right
end is revolving: the
other circle by keeping
the right end
while the left end is
revolving
