radicem dari; alioquin in omnibus una ſemper habetur, & unica; quoniam recta EF curvas ſemel interſecabit, nec pluries,

90. Series octava.

{_cc_/_a_} + _b_ - _a_ = _n_.

Fig. 215.

_cc_ + _ba_ - _aa_ = _nn._

_cca_ + _baa_ - _a_ 3 = _n_ 3 .

_ccaa_ + _ba_ 3 - _a_ 4 = _n_ 4 , & c.

91. Series nona.

_a_ - _b_ - {_cc_/_a_} = _n._

_aa_ - _ba_ - _cc_ = _nn._

_a_ 3 - _baa_ - _cca_ = _n_ 3 .

_a_ 4 - _ba_ 3 - _ccaa_ = _n_ 4 . & c.

In recta AI ſumatur AB = _b_; & in AD ad ipſam AI perpen-
diculari ſit AC = _c_; fiant autem anguli IAR, ABS ſemirecti; ducatúrque recta ZGK ad AI utcunque perpendicularis, ipſam BS
ſecans ad ξ; & ſit AG. AC: : AC. ξ K; tum per K intra angu-
lum DSB deſcribatur _byperbola_ KYHK; ſint denuò curvæ CLHLλ,
