s of any point N ofthe surface being denoted by OD = z, DN=^u,C is the centre of curvature of the point O ofthe surface; so that CO = b [9488], and it isevident that GO = b [9487]. The radius of curvature of the arc ANO, at the pointiV, is R ; the other radius of curvature of the arc passing… … change the signs of R, b, as in [9301n, 6], and then [9315] becomes ^+f-(i-s)+^-^+f-&.-i)- 2 Rejecting iTfrom both sides of the equation, and then multiplying by 77) we get Now we have R 1 dz R~R~lâ~b~b == [9326]; also, in [9327e], ^= — 1/7 — du du ^ ^ + du^ V ^ duy observing that the sign of…
