The two suppositions, a <c and a = c, have beerproved false. 165. Cor. The pei^pendieular is the shortest straightline from a point to a line. 166. Def. The length of the perpendicular from a point toa line is called the distance from the point to the line. 58 PLANE GEOMETRY Ex. 156. The sum of the altitudes of any triangle is less than theperimeter of the triangle. Ex. 157. Given the quadrilateral ABCD with B and D right anglesand EC greater than CD. Prove AD greater than AB.
