Tim circles cannot luce more then two joints common toboth, without coim If it be possible, let ABC and ABE be two ©s which havemore than two pts. in common, as A, B, C. Join AB, BC. Then v AB is a chord of each circle, .. the centre of each circle lies in the straight line, whichbisects AB at right angles ; III. 1. and V BC is a chord of each circle, .*. the centre of each circle lies in the straight line, -whichbisects BC at right angles. III. 1. .. the centre of each circle is the point, in which the twostraight lines, which bisect AB and BC at right angles, meet, .. the ©s ABC, ADE have a common centre, which isimpossible ; III. 5 and (J. .. two ©s cannot have more than two pts. common to both.
