rchimedes, and it issaid that he requested them to be engraved on his tomb. For another example, we require the volume generated by the revo-lution of a cycloid on its base. The differential of any revoloid is jty^dx. For the cycloid we have dx=—J^ ^ (Art. 48.) J2ry—y^ Whence J ^y-dx=J-^£M=.^=^… … These integrals require no con-stant, for when we make 2/=0 thevolume will be 0, as it ought to be. If we make y=2r, the corres-ponding volume will be half thevolume sought, and (4) will be-come rt. fhis value put in (3) will give ■Tir. And this substituted in (2) will give r y^dy ^^nr^ J^iry—y^…
