It is not necessary to suppose the figure to be a mere flat disc or plane - for the
preceding statements apply to any one of a set of parallel planes in a rigid body ,
moving in any way subject to the condition that the points of any one plane in it ...

If a rigid body move in any way whatever , subject only to the condition that one of
its points remains fixed , there is always ( without exception ) one line of it through
this point common to the body in any two positions . Consider a spherical ...

tending to produce rotation about a perpendicular axis , the result will be a
change of direction of the axis about which the body revolves , but no change in
the angular velocity . 109. If a pyramid or cone of any form roll on a similar
