Proposition: Prop. 11.35: Condition for Equal Angles contained by Elevated Straight Lines from Plane Angles

Euclid's Formulation

If there are two equal rectilinear angles, and raised straight lines are stood on the apexes of them, containing equal angles respectively with the original straight lines (forming the angles), and random points are taken on the raised (straight lines), and perpendiculars are drawn from them to the planes in which the original angles are, and straight lines are joined from the points created in the planes to the (vertices of the) original angles, then they will enclose equal angles with the raised (straight lines).
