XI.25 Proposition XI.25
If a parallelepipedal solid be cut by a plane parallel to opposite planes, then, as the base is to the base, so will the solid be to the solid.
Proof
Apply XI.17 to the side faces and VI.1 to the parallel base-pairs;
the volume is proportional to one varying side at constant
cross-section.
