Segments Divided in Ratio
Line-segments marked with lengths and points, continuing the proportion studies
Short line-segments are drawn and marked with the points a, c, e, f and b and the lengths 10, 6, 16, 2, 2 and 4. The measured divisions set one line against another, continuing the study of proportion that runs through this part of Notebook K. The pencil is faint and much of the construction is only lightly indicated.
