...seat, has proven to us all that the angles at the base of an isosceles triangle are not equal, and that if the equal sides be produced the angles on the other side of the base are not equal either. Therefore, Mr. Speaker, may I be allowed to ask what I am to do about the matter.... | |

...thought of the past. If Euclid were alive to-day (and I dare say he is) he would not say, " The angles at the base of an isosceles triangle are equal to one another." He would say, "To me (a very frail and fallible being, remember) it does somehow seem that these two... | |

...be more difficult to prove that the angles at the base of an isosceles triangle are equal, and that if the equal sides be produced, the angles on the other side of the base shall be equal, than it was to describe an equilateral triangle on a given finite straight line; yet no one but an... | |

...Euclid in itself is not of much practical use — no one wants to prove in everyday life that the angles at the base of an isosceles triangle are equal to one another or that the three angles of a triangle are equal to two right angles, but you learn Euclid in order... | |

...April 16, April 23 and May 7, 1798. Thus, Euclid's compact and perspicuous prose tells us, " The angles at the base of an isosceles triangle are equal to one another; and if the equal sides are produced, the angles at the other side of the base are equal." Versified in Darwinian fashion by... | |
