2 TT = 6.28 0 Constructing these points and tracing a smooth curvethrough them, we have the locus of the equation. This curve, together with that of the preceding article,belong to the class of Repeating Curves, so called becausethey repeat themselves infinitely along the X-axis. 206 PLANE ANALYTIC… … point P, the Generating Point ; the circle BPL, the Gen-erating Circle; the line HB, perpendicular to OM at itsmiddle point, the Axis. The points 0 and M are the Verticesof the cycloid. 1. To deduce the rectangular equation, the origin beingtaken at the left-hand vertex of the curve. Let P be any…
