The cycloid was first studied by Cusa when he was attempting to find the area of a circle by integration. ... Mersenne gave the first proper definition of the cycloid and stated the obvious properties such as the length of the base equals the circumference of the rolling circle. Mersenne attempted to find the area under...

The trace of a point on the circumference is called cycloid. The angle t in the figure is the angle through which the radius turns as the circle rolls to a new position. x=a(t-sin t), y=a(1-cos t); ... Then, the angle by the tangent line of cycloid and the y-axis is equal to t/2. Why? 1. The circle touches x-axis at point...
