Euclid's Elements.

Book 10.

Propositions 48-50.

Why for proposition 48 does it show JUST the greater term, EF, as being a first binomial line, instead of the whole, as the proposition states? For the next two props, the whole line is listed as the binomial lines in question...

I'm wondering if it's my translation.

Is it pronounced "you-clit" or "oi-clit"?
