We can therefore limit the investigation to the positions of equilibrium of one of the generatingsections. A Let ABC, Fig. 1, be a generating section whenonly one angle is… … ABC \bc sin.

Since (b) is derived directly from (a), by changing a into1 — a, we may examine the case of Fig. 1, and deduce that ofFig. 2 from the result, by changing a into 1 —a. Bisect BC in M, and QP in m.
