  2. Summary:
  3. a, b, c, d are in proportion if a/d = b/c
  4. Mean proportional:
  5. If a: b:: b: c, then a/b = b/c
  6. b 2 = ac
    b = √ac
  7. Duplicate Ratio : The duplicate ratio of (a : b) is (a 2 : b 2 )
  8. Sub-Duplicate Ratio : The sub-duplicate ratio of (a: b) is
    subduplicate ratio
  9. Triplicate Ratio : The Triplicate ratio of (a : b) is (a 3 : b 3 )
  10. Sub-Triplicate Ratio : The sub-triplicate ratio of (a: b) is (a 1/3 : b 1/3 )
