N any isosceles triangle if the equal sides be produced, the external angles at the base are equal, and the internal angles at the base are also equal.
Then in and we have, = (const.), common to both, and = (hyp.) ∴ = , = and = (pr. 4.).
Again in and , we have = , ∴ = and = (pr. 4.) but = , ∴ = (ax. 3.)
