Algebra, chapter IX, § 10. Angles

Let us denote by i:O+→S+/Hi : O^+ \to S^+/H and d:S+/H→O+d : S^+/H \to O^+ the homomorphisms defined in Propositions 2 and 3, and let us write the abelian groups O+O^+ and S+/HS^+/H additively; then d(i(θ))=2θd(i(\theta)) = 2\theta for θ∈O+\theta \in O^+ and i(d(φ))=2φi(d(\varphi)) = 2\varphi for φ∈S+/H\varphi \in S^+/H.

In fact, if φ‾\overline{\varphi} is a rotation, we have φ‾=φ−1\overline{\varphi} = \varphi^{-1}, whence d(i(φ))=φ/φ‾=φ2d(i(\varphi)) = \varphi/\overline{\varphi} = \varphi^2. On the other hand, if φ∈S+/H\varphi \in S^+/H, φ\varphi is the class mod. HH of a direct similarity uu, and d(φ)=u/u‾=u2/N(u)d(\varphi) = u/\overline{u} = u^2 / N(u) is congruent to u2u^2 mod. HH; whence the second formula.

Bourbaki puts the proof directly after the statement, so what is above is the statement and its proof together.
