The brachistochrone problem is a seventeenth century exercise in the calculus of variations. In his solution to the problem, Jean Bernoulli employed a very clever analogy to prove that the path is a cycloid.

The brachistochrone problem, that is, "find the path of shortest time of a particle moving between two points on a vertical plane", was proposed, solved erroneously, and studied experimentally by Galileo, and solved mathematically by Jacques Bernoulli's variational calculus methods in 1697. We will revisit...

The brachistochrone problem asks for the shape of the curve down which a bead, starting from rest and accelerated by gravity, will slide (without friction) from one point to another in the least time.

Johann Bernoulli was not the first to consider the brachistochrone problem. Galileo in 1638 had studied the problem in his famous work Discourse on two new sciences. His version of the problem was first to find the straight line from a point A to the point on a vertical line which it would reach the quickest.
