9. If 12 horses are required to plough 16 acres in 4 days working 9 hours a day, in how many days will 20 horses plough 20 acres working 8 hours a day?

10. A broker calls in 6400l. invested on mortgage at 4 per cent. and invests three-fourths of the amount in railway shares paying 6 per cent. at 130; the rest he invests in foreign securities paying 5 per cent. at 96. Find the difference of annual income.

11. At what rate per cent. will the simple interest on 6000l. amount to 9457. in 4 years?

12. A farmer purchased 120 lambs at 30s. a head in the autumn. During the winter 12 died, but he sold the rest in May at 458. each. What was his gain per cent. ?

13. Find the present worth of 2000l. due 3 years hence at 5 per cent.

Euclid.

1. Define-plane superficies, right angle, circle, gnomon, figure, parallel straight lines.

2. Draw a straight line perpendicular to a given straight line of unlimited length, from a given point without it.

3. If, at a point in a straight line, two other straight lines, upon the opposite sides of it, make the adjacent angles together equal to two right angles, these two straight lines shall be in one and the same straight line.

4. At a given point in a given straight line, make a rectilineal angle equal to a given rectilineal angle.

5. Parallelograms upon equal bases, and between the same parallels, are equal to one another.

6. Describe a parallelogram equal to a given rectilineal figure, and having an angle equal to a given rectilineal angle.

7. In any right-angled triangle, the square which is described on the side subtending the right angle, is equal to the squares described upon the sides which contain the right angle.

8. If a straight line be bisected, and produced to any point, the rectangle contained by the whole line thus produced, and the part of it produced, together with the square of half the line bisected, is equal to the square of the straight line which is made up of the half and the part produced.

9. If a straight line be bisected, and produced to any point, the square of the whole line thus produced, and the square of the part of it produced, are together double of the square of half the line bisected, and of the square of the line made up of the half and the part produced.

10. Divide a given straight line into two parts, so that the rectangle contained by the whole and one of the parts shall be equal to the square of the other part.

11. Describe a square that shall be equal to a given rectilineal figure.
