then, given two straight lines constructed on a straight line (from its extremities) and meeting in a point, there
will have been constructed on the same straight line (from its extremities), and on the same side of it, two
other straight lines meeting in another point and equal to the former two respectively, namely each to that which
has the same extremity with it. But they cannot be so constructed. [I.7] |
