We show how the basic notion of rational trigonometry---quadr ance---arises from the geometry of the ancient Greeks. The little-known sister theorem to Pythagoras features prominently, and is closely related to a theorem of Archimedes.

We derive from first principles the main laws of rational trigonometry, using the concepts of quadrance and spread to replace the usual distance and angle. Most everything works out much simpler.
