92. Ἔστω ὁρώμενα τὰ Α, Γ ἐπὶ παραλλήλων ὄντα τῶν ΑΒ, Γ∠ εὐθειῶν. λέγω, ὅτι τὸ πόρρω τὸ Α καταλείπεσθαι δόξει. ἔστω γὰρ ὄμμα τὸ Ε, ἀφʼ οὗ προσπιπτέτωσαν ἀκτῖνες αἱ ΕΓ, ΕΑ, Εσαν, ΕΒ. ἐπεὶ οὖν μείζων ἐστὶν ἡ ὑπὸ ΓΕ∠ τῆς ὑπὸ ΑΕΒ, μεῖζον ἄρα καὶ τοῦ ΑΒ τὸ Γ∠ φανήσεται. ὑπολείπεται ἄρα τὸ Α· δοκεῖ γὰρ βραδύτερον φέρεσθαι.
