Using the text of Sir Thomas Heath's translation of The Elements, I have graphically glossed Books I - IV to produce a reader friendly version of Euclid's Plane Geometry. In the first proposition, Proposition 1, Book I, Euclid shows that, using only the postulates and common notions, it is possible to construct...
