Weight on an oblique line (like folio 108r)
A faint repeat of the inclined-plane construction
A lightly drawn sketch reworks the inclined-plane figure of folio 108r, setting a square and an oblique 'line of motion' inside a circle. The labels 4 and 8 and the phrase 'line of motion' mark the diagram. It continues Leonardo's study of how the force felt along an oblique line relates to the weight being moved.

Weight along an oblique 'line of motion'
A faint diagram repeats the inclined-plane construction of folio 108r: a square set within a circle with an oblique 'line of motion' crossing it. The figures 4 and 8 mark values along the line, restating how a weight's pull changes along a slanting path.
