: THEORY OF STATISTICS.
4. In fig. 50, suppose every horizontal array to be given a slide to the right
until its mean lies on the vertical axis through the mean of the whole distribu-
tion : then suppose the ellipses to be squeezed in the direction of this vertical
axis until they become circles. The original quadrant has now become a
sector with an angle between one and two right angles, and the question is
solved on determining its magnitude,
