et the length of the base,O £>, be r, and let m- repre-sent the constant differencebetween the squares of thesides. The definition of the locusmay be expressed by the equation O^ - nT^ =pi\ (i) which will be the equation of the required locus when we expressO P and D P\x\ terms of .r, r, and c.… … 2 c X — r — m or X — c^ + tn^ UMfVrrFcSlTY OF G,^LJFCV^NIA-ARTMENT O- CIVIL Ei-^G.:,-;.. 98 ANALYTIC GEOMETRY.
