to D A: It is manifeſt therefore, by the precedent Lemma, that C D is to D Q, as L B is to
B M: But as C D is to D Q, ſo is C M to M P: Therefore L B is to B M, as C M to M P:
And it haveing been demonſtrated, that C M is to M P, as C E to E A; L B ſhall be to B M,
as C E to E A. And in like manner it ſhall be demonstrated that ſo is N O to O F; as alſo the
Remainders. And that alſo H K is to K E, as C E to E A, doth plainly appeare by the ſame
5. of Archimedes: Which is that that we propounded to be demonſtrated.

And, therefore, let the things ſtand as above; and deſcribe
yet another like Portion, contained betwixt a Right Line, and
the Section of the Rightangled Cone D R C, whoſe Diameter
is R S, that it may cut the Line F G in T; and prolong S R
unto the Line C H in V, which meeteth the Section A B C in
X, and E F C in Y. I ſay, that B M hath to M D, a propor
tion compounded of the proportion that E A hath to A C;
and of that which C D hath to D E.

the Section of the Rightangled Cone D R C, whoſe Diameter
is R S, that it may cut the Line F G in T; and prolong S R

tion compounded of the proportion that E A hath to A C;
and of that which C D hath to D E.
For, we ſhall firſt demonſtrate, that the Line C H toucheth the Section D R C in the
Point C; and that L M is to M D, as alſo N F to F T, and V Y to Y R, as C D is to E D.
And, becauſe now that L B is to B M, as C E is to E A; therefore, Compounding and Conver
ting, B M ſhall be to L M, as E A to A C: And, as L M is to M D, ſo ſhall C D be to
D E: The proportion, therefore, of B M to M D, is compounded of the proportion that
B M hath to L M, and of the proportion that L M hath to M D: Therefore, the proportion
of B M to M D, ſhall alſo be compounded of the proportion that E A hath to A C, and of
that which C D hath to D E. In the ſame manner it ſhal be demonſtrated, that O F hath to

And C B is to B D, as ſix to fifteen.] For we have ſuppoſed that B K is
double of K D: Wherefore, by Compoſition B D ſhall be to K D as three to one; that is, as
fifteen to five: But B D was to K C as fifteen to four; Therefore B D is to D C as fifteen to nine:
And, by Converſion of proportion and Convert
