G.174 ex aequali (equality of ratios)

A:term:ratio <G.173>ex aequali arises when, there being several magnitudes and another set equal to them in multitude which taken two and two are in the same proportion, as the first is to the last among the first magnitudes, so is the first to the last among the second magnitudes; Or, in other words, it means taking the extreme terms by virtue of the removal of the intermediate terms.

G.175 magnitude multiple equimultiples

If a first magnitude be the same multiple of a second that a third is of a fourth, and if equimultiples be taken of the first and third, then also :term:`ex aequali <G.174>` the magnitudes taken is equimultiples respectively, the one of the second and the other of the fourth.

G.202 there magnitudes others

If there be three magnitudes, and others equal to them in multitude, which taken two and two are in the same ratio, and if :term:`ex aequali <G.174>` the first be greater than the third, the fourth is greater than the sixth; if equal, equal; and, if less, less.

G.204 there magnitudes others

If there be three magnitudes, and others equal to them in multitude, which taken two and two together are in the same ratio, and the proportion of them be perturbed, then, if ex aequali the first magnitude is greater than the third, the fourth is greater than the sixth; if equal, equal; and if less, less.

G.205 there number magnitudes

If there be any number of magnitudes whatever, and others equal to them in multitude, which taken two and two together are in the same ratio, they is in the same ratio ex aequali.

G.206 there magnitudes others

If there be three magnitudes, and others equal to them in multitude, which taken two and two together are in the same ratio, and the proportion of them be perturbed, they is in the same ratio ex aequali.

G.207 magnitude ratio fifth

If a first magnitude have to a second the same ratio as a third has to a fourth, and also a fifth have to the second the same ratio as a sixth to the fourth, the first and fifth added together will have to the second the same ratio as the third and sixth have to the fourth.

G.213 equiangular triangles sides

In equiangular triangles the sides about the equal angles are proportional, and those are corresponding sides which subtend the equal angles.

G.232 similar polygons divided

Similar polygons are divided into similar triangles, and into triangles equal in multitude and in the same ratio as the wholes, and the polygon has to the polygon a ratio duplicate of that which the corresponding side has to the corresponding side.

G.234 segments proportional polygons

If four segments be proportional, the polygons similar and similarly described upon them is proportional; and, if the polygons similar and similarly described upon them be proportional, the segments will themselves also be proportional.

G.235 equiangular parallelograms ratio

Equiangular parallelograms have to one another the ratio compounded of the ratios of their sides.

G.236 parallelogram parallelograms diameter

In any parallelogram the parallelograms about the diameter are similar both to the whole and to one another.

G.267 there many numbers

If there be as many numbers as we please, and others equal to them in multitude, which taken two and two are in the same ratio, they is in the same ratio ex aequali.

G.296 there many numbers

If there be as many numbers as we please in continued proportion, and the extremes of them be prime to one another, the numbers are the least of those which have the same ratio with them.

G.301 plane numbers ratio

Plane numbers have to one another the ratio compounded of the ratios of their sides.

G.303 there many numbers

If there be as many numbers as we please in continued proportion, and the first do not measure the second, neither will any other measure any other.

G.305 numbers there fall

If between two numbers there fall numbers in continued proportion with them, then, however many numbers fall between them in continued proportion, so many will also fall in continued proportion between the numbers which have the same ratio with the original numbers.

G.313 there many numbers

If there be as many numbers as we please in continued proportion, and each by multiplying itself make some number, the products is proportional; and, if the original numbers by multiplying the products make certain numbers, the latter is proportional.

G.323 mean proportional numbers

If two mean proportional numbers fall between two numbers, the numbers are similar solid numbers.

G.349 numbers investigate possible

Given three numbers, to investigate when it is possible to find a fourth proportional to them.

G.370 many numbers please

If as many numbers as we please beginning from an unit be set out continuously in double proportion, until the sum of all becomes prime, and if the sum multiplied into the last make some number, the product is perfect.

G.376 commensurable magnitudes ratio

Commensurable magnitudes have to one another the ratio which a number has to a number.

G.377 magnitudes ratio number

If two magnitudes have to one another the ratio which a number has to a number, the magnitudes is commensurable.

G.384 magnitudes commensurable magnitude

Magnitudes commensurable with the same magnitude are commensurable with one another also.

G.386 segments proportional square

If four segments be proportional, and the square on the first be greater than the square on the second by the square on a segment commensurable with the first, the square on the third is greater than the square on the fourth by the square on a segment commensurable with the third. And, if the square on the first be greater than the square on the second by the square on a segment incommensurable with the first, the square on the third is greater than the square on the fourth by the square on a segment incommensurable with the third.
