[Commentary:
This page and the next explore sides of polygons inscribed in circles.
Harriot refers to Euclid, Propositions.
If an equilateral triangle is inscribed in a circle, then the square on the side of the triangle is triple the square on the radius of the circle.
If the side of the hexagon and that of the decagon inscribed in the same circle be added together, the whole straight line has been cut in extreme and mean ratio, and its greater segment is the side of the hexagon.
There is also a reference to Euclid, .
If two magnitudes be commensurable, and one of them be incommensurable with some magnitude, the remaning one will also be incommensuarble with the same. ]
