ircle PP -will change its position. Theenvelope of PP is required. Let CP =r, and AP = r. Let P be designat-ed as (m, n), P as (m, n), and P as {yn, n). The equation of the locus PP whose envelope is i-equired is y - - n ;= 156 PROPERTIES OF PLANE LOCI. —; 77(0; — m) (1). But by reason of the… … Fig. 169. find the equation of the given locus P P to be ny -\- mx = r2 (4). Again, if we let the distance between the centres of the circles AC be repre-sented by a, we have the relation between n and m in the equation ?i2 4- (m — ay = r2 (5). The problem then is to find the envelope of (4), when…
