Definition VIII.
IF a Parabolick plane(α) 1.1 HEGFH (Fig. 105. n. 1.) together with a triangle HEG inscribed in it, and a rectangle HL circumscri∣bed about it, be conceived to be moved round about the ax EF on the point F; it will be evident that by the triangle there will be generated a cone, by the rectangle a cylinder, and by the parabola a parabolick solid, which with the comprehended cone, and the comprehending cylinder, will have the common base HIGK and the same altitude EF, and was by Archimedes named a Parabolick Conoid.
