(Fig. 82.) (h) Within a given circle to construct a triangle similar toanother triangle. (Triangles are similar when the angles inone are equal to the angles in the other, each to each. Theyare similarly situated when the sides of one are parallel to thesides of the other, each to each. These are called homologoussides.) Let ABC be the given circle and LHK, the given any point C, draw a tangent DE, and describe a semicircleDE; with centre H, and any distance HM, describe an arc,and with centre K and same distance describe an arc.
