Edition and English translation of the Arabic text of some chapters on arithmetic and geometry of the Kitāb al-Istikmāl (Book of Perfection) by the Andalusian mathematician al-Mu'taman ibn Hūd, King of Saragossa (1081--1085). The author relates the text to six geometrical lemmas from Book V of the Optics (Kitāb al-Manāẓir) of Ibn al-Haytham (ca. 965--1041), and suggests that there may have been two Arabic versions of it, an Eastern and a Western. This last one was known, or may be even due, to al-Mu'taman himself. For the entire collection see [Zbl 0855.00012].
