c12.s1.t1.34

L. 139. A side is put. From that multiplied by twice some assumed number and divided by one less than the square of the assumed number a perpendicular is obtained. This being set aside is multiplied by the arbitrary number and the side as put is subtracted—the remainder will be the hypotenuse. Such a triangle is termed ‘ genuine.’
