May and Ruth were cutting- out tickets for a recital, from a pieceof cardboard, and the part remaining- was in the form of a segment ofa circle, the height and base measur-ing exactly 2 in. and 12 in. The girls,being mathematically inclined, set towork to find the diameter of the circlefrom which the. segment was cut:what was the diameter? Solution. (1) Let ABC be the segment, and CD=2, AD=12 in. (2) Join CD, and produce CD to E, join EB. Then the two
