Proposition: Prop. 11.14: Planes Perpendicular to same Straight Line are Parallel

(Proposition 14 from Book 11 of Euclid's “Elements”)

Planes to which the same straight line is at right angles will be parallel planes. * For let some straight line $AB$ be at right angles to each of the planes $CD$ and $EF$. * I say that the planes are parallel.
