  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. b2 = ac
    b = √ac
  7. Duplicate Ratio: The duplicate ratio of (a : b) is (a2 : b2)
  8. Sub-Duplicate Ratio: The sub-duplicate ratio of (a: b) is 
    subduplicate ratio
  9. Triplicate Ratio: The Triplicate ratio of (a : b) is (a3 : b3)
  10. Sub-Triplicate Ratio: The sub-triplicate ratio of (a: b) is (a1/3: b1/3)
