Book II   Proposition 7
Then, since
    AG is equal to GE, [I.43]
    let CF be added to each;
therefore
    the whole AF is equal to the whole CE.
Therefore
    AF, CE are double AF.
But
    AF, CE
are
    the gnomon KLM and the square CF;
Therefore
    the gnomon KLM and the square CF are double AF.
