Book VI 1. Definition
It is a sufficient definition of Similar Triangle say
they are such which have their angles equal each in out
to its correspondent in the others. That the boundaries of
such triangles are Proportionals may be demonstrated
or vice versa either could serve as a definition with at the other
The terms to be defined by this definition is very inadequate of
2. Definition itself to the Idea intended to be fixed to it. The idea itself
is expressed very obscurely and it does not seem to occur
enough to demand a particular term.
New definition Two lines are said to be divided proportionally when
Euclid says: that if the sides of a triangle be cut proportionally
