On the shape of the cast shadows (188-191). A spot is most illuminated when a
large number ofluminous rays fall upon it. And the larger the light object
opposite, themore the shadow will be lightened. On the relative intensity of
derived shadows (175-179).
Whether it is possible to give clear and definite
outlines to theedges of shadows. Why is the shadow _e a b_ in the first grade
of strength, _b c_ inthe second; _c d_ in the third? On the relative intensity
of derived shadows (175-179).

And thepyramid _g_ 4 goes into _l y_ exactly as often as _a b_ goes
into _ef_.
_b c_ faces the portion of thesky _f g_ and is illuminated by it. At
