Boethian Number Theory
Ancient Versions of two Trigonometric Lemmas
To justify certain steps of the computation developed in his Sand-Reckoner , Archimedes cites (without proof) the following inequalities relative to the sides of right triangles: if of two right-angled triangles, (one each of) the sides about the right angle are equal (to each other), while the other sides are unequal, the greater angle of those toward [sc. next to] the unequal sides has to the lesser (angle) a greater ratio than the greater line…
