lar equation of thecircle, when the pole is in the circumference. The equation of the circle, referred to rectangular co-or-dinates, when the origin is in the circumference, as at £\ (Art. 4—8), is, y^ z= 2Rx ^ x^ , ^ , , . (1.)

Since the polar equation, r^ — 27?r cos v = 0, has no absolute term, one of the roots is equal to 0; *which ought to be the case,…
