one of them, then shall the other twoo sides of those triangles bee equalle togither, and the thirde corner also shall be equall in those two triangles.
Example.
Bicause that A.B.C, the one triangle hath two corners A. and B, equal to D.E, that are twoo corners of the other triangle. D.E.F. and that they haue one side in theym bothe equall, that is A.B, which is equall to D.E, therefore shall both the other ij. sides be equall one to an other, as A.C. and B.C. equall to D.F. and E.F, and also the thirde angle in them both shal be equall, that is, the angle C. shal be equall to the angle F.
[ The eightenth Theoreme.]
When on ij. right lines ther is drawen a third right line crosse waies, and maketh .ij. matche corners of the one line equall to the like twoo matche corners of the other line, then ar those two lines gemmow lines, or paralleles.
Example.
The .ij. fyrst lynes are A.B. and C.D, the thyrd lyne that crosseth them is E.F. And bycause that E.F. maketh ij. matche angles with A.B, equall to .ij. other lyke matche angles on C.D, (that is to say E.G, equall to K.F, and M.N. equall also to H.L.) therfore are those ij. lynes A.B. and C.D. gemow lynes, vnderstand here by lyke matche corners, those that go one way as doth E.G, and K.F, lyke ways N.M, and H.L, for as E.G. and H.L, other N.M. and K.F. go not one waie, so be not they lyke match corners.
