23. The four sides of any quadrilateral are together greater than the two diagonals together.
24. The two sides of a triangle are together greater than twice the straight line drawn from the vertex to the middle point of the base.
25. If one angle of a triangle is equal to the sum of the other two, the triangle can be divided into two isosceles triangles.
26. If the angle C of a triangle is equal to the sum of the angles A and B, the side is equal to twice the straight line joining C to the middle point of AB.
27. Construct a triangle, having given the base, one of the angles at the base, and the sum of the sides.
28. The perpendiculars lot fall on two sides of a triangle from any point in the straight line bisecting the angle between them are equal to each other.
29. In a given straight line find a point such that the perpendiculars drawn from it to two given straight lines shall be equal.
30. Through a given point draw a straight line such that the perpendiculars on it from two given points may be on opposite sides of it and equal to each other.
31. A straight line bisects the angle A of a triangle ABC; from B a perpendicular is drawn to this bisecting straight line, meeting it at D, and BD is produced to meet AC or AC produced at E: shew that BD is equal to BE.
32. AB, AC are any two straight lines meeting at A: through any point P draw a straight line meeting them at E and E, such that AE may be equal to AF.
33. Two right-angled triangles have their hypotenuses equal, and a side of one equal to a side of the other: show that they are equal in all respects.
I. 27 to 31.
34. Any straight lino parallel to the base of an isosceles triangle makes equal angles with the sides.
35. If two straight lines A and B are respectively parallel to two others C and D, shew that the inclination of A to B is equal to that of C to D.
36. A straight line is drawn terminated by two parallel straight lines; through its middle point any straight line is
