Book VI   Proposition 29
Let
    GO be made equal to KL, and GP equal to LM;
and
    let the parallelogram OGPQ be completed;
therefore
    it is equal and similar to KM.

Therefore
    GQ is also similar to GB; [VI.21]
therefore
    GQ is about the same diameter with GB. [VI.26]
Let
    GQB be their diameter, and let the figure be described..
