Hence the solid described hy the revolution of the triangle ABC,/i<z5 for its measure the area of this trnangle multiplied by two thirds of the circumference traced by I, the middle jjoint of the base. Cor, If the side AC = CB,the line CI will be perpen-dicular to AB, the area ABCwill be equal to ABx|CI,and the solidity ^n x ABC xIK will become f^rxABxIK X CI. But the trianglesABO, CIK, are similar, andgive the proportion AB : BOor MN : : CI : IK; hence ABxIK=MNxCI; hence thesolid described by the isosceles triangle ABC will have for itsmeasure l^txCPxMN : that is, equal to two thirds of
