Τῶν αὐτῶν ὄντων τὸ Δ σημεῖον ἔστω ἐν τῇ ἐφεξῆς γωνίᾳ τῆς ὑπὸ τῶν ἀσυμπτώτων περιεχομένης. λέγω, ὅτι καὶ οὕτως τὰ αὐτὰ συμβήσεται. ἤχθω γὰρ ἐφαπτομένη ἡ ΔΘ, καὶ ἐπι- ζευχθεῖσα ἡ Θ Β πιπτέτω, εἰ δυνατόν, μὴ διὰ τοῦ Ζ, ἀλλὰ διὰ τοῦ Η. ἴση ἄρα ἐστὶν ἡ ΔΕ τῇ ΕΗ· ὅπερ ἄτοπον· ὑπόκειται γὰρ ἡ ΔΕ τῇ ΕΖ ἴση.
