and_o which_o be_v the_o sine_fw-la of_o 45_o degree_n and_o which_o be_v also_o the_o mean_a proportional_a between_o the_o two_o extreme_n and_o yet_o you_o bring_v none_o of_o these_o propriety_n

it_o be_v let_v ab_fw-la or_o ad_fw-la be_v equal_a to_o 2_o then_o df_n or_o dv_o be_v equal_a to_o 1_o and_o br_n or_o as_o be_v equal_a to_o the_o square_a root_n of_o 2_o and_o hence_v equal_a
