Hawley gives no explanation of his reasonfor taking one side of the triangle C D E as theradius of the large circle A F G. As a matterof fact it may be shown mathematically thatA F or AG, a side of the BonwiLl equilateraltriangle, is four times A B, the radius of thesmall circle, and Hawleys diagram may beproduced in a much simpler way as follows (seeFig. 246)— Describe a circle from centre B, with radiusA B equal to the combined widths of central,lateral, and canine. Draw B J at an angle of60° with B A, to cut the circle at J, and on theother side of B A draw^B H in a similar B A, and draw tangents to the circleat J, H at angles of 20° to B A, meeting B Aproduced at a point 0. Extend O J, 0 H toF, G, until A F, A G equal F G. From J, Hmeasure J K, H L, equal to t
