hose coordinates are x and y, the latter being measured downward. Then the length of the curve AP is V8ay and the length of AE is 8 a, expressions of the greatest simplicity. The area between the cycloid DAE and the straight line DE is three times the area of the generating circle or 3 ira?. The… … curve of pursuit is PQ. Let a be the distance between the initial positions O and A, and let n be the ratio of the speeds
