The length of the chord of curvature parallel to the axis of x is = 2a, a constant. Let f, rj, be the coordinates of the centre of curvature and c this chord. Then „ c c dx which therefore represents the evolute for the part near the origin. 6. Investigate the analytical conditions for the existence of multiple points in a curve of which the equation is u = 0, u being a rational function of x and y; and shew how the degree of multiplicity may be determined. Prove that, if du du _ dx2 + df1 at a double point, the coordinates of which are x, y, the two branches of the curve are at right angles to each other; and that, if the point be the origin, the equation of the tangents to the branches will be £, 77, being current coordinates of the tangent.
