1. A circle C of radius 2r has its center at the origin. A circle of radius r rolls without slipping in
the counterclockwise direction around C. A point P is located on a xed radius of the rolling
circle at a distance b from its center, 0 b r. [See parts (i) and (ii) of the gure.] Let L be
the line from the center of C to the center of the rolling circle and let be the angle that L
makes with the positive x-axis.
(a) Using as a parameter, show that parametric equations of the path traced out by P are
x b cos 3 3r cos , y b sin 3 3r sin . Note: If b 0, the path is a circle of
radius 3r; if b r, the path is an epicycloid. The path traced out by P for 0 b r is
called an epitrochoid.
(b) Graph the curve for various values of b between 0 and r .
(c) Show that an equilateral triangle can be inscribed in the epitrochoid and that its centroid is
on the circle of radius b centered at the origin.
Note: This is the principle of the Wankel rotary engine. When the equilateral triangle
rotates with its vertices on the epitrochoid, its centroid sweeps out a circle whose center is
at the center of the curve.
(d) In most rotary engines the sides of the equilateral triangles are replaced by arcs of circles
centered at the opposite vertices as in part (iii) of the gure. (Then the diameter of the
rotor is constant.) Show that the rotor will t in the epitrochoid if b 3(2 s3 )r2.

Eq (1) = Eq (0) =
(d) We use mathematical induction. For q = 0: E0 (1 {) = 1 and (1)0 E0 ({) = 1, so the

equation holds for q = 0 since e0 = 1. Now if En (1 {) = (1)n En ({), then
since
g

g{ En+1 (1

g
{) = En+1
(1 {) g{
(1 {) = En (1 {), we have
{) = (1)(1)n En ({) = (1)n+1 En ({). Integrating, we get
En+1 (1 {) = (1)n+1 En+1 ({) + F. But the constant of integration must be 0, since if we substitute { = 0 in
the equation, we get En+1 (1) = (1)n+1 En+1 (0) + F, and if we substitute { = 1 we get
En+1 (0) = (1)n+1 En+1 (1) + F, and these two equations together imply that

En+1 (0) = (1)n+1 (1)n+1 En+1 (0) + F + F = En+1 (0) + 2F F = 0.
So the equation holds for all q, by induction. Now if the power of 1 is odd, then we have
E2q+1 (1 {) = E2q+1 ({). In particular, E2q+1 (1) = E2q+1 (0). But from part (b), we know that
En (1) = En (0) for n A 1. The only possibility is that E2q+1 (0) = E2q+1 (1) = 0 for all q A 0, and this implies
that e2q+1 = (2q + 1)! E2q+1 (0) = 0 for q A 0.

There are four basic shapes for the graphs of Eq (excluding E1 ), and as q increases, they repeat in a cycle of four.
For q = 4p, the shape resembles that of the graph of cos 2{; For q = 4p + 1, that of sin 2{; for
q = 4p + 2, that of cos 2{; and for q = 4p + 3, that of sin 2{.

(h) The result from part (g) implies that sn = n! [En+1 (s + 1) En+1 (s)]. If we sum both sides of this equation from

But from the denition of Bernoulli polynomials (and using the Fundamental Theorem of Calculus), the RHS is

1. (a) Wq ({) = cos(q arccos {). The domain of arccos is [1> 1], and the domain of cos is R, so the domain of Wq ({)
is [1> 1]. As for the range, W0 ({) = cos 0 = 1, so the range of W0 ({) is {1}. But since the range of q arccos { is
at least [0> ] for q A 0, and since cos | takes on all values in [1> 1] for | [0> ], the range of Wq ({) is [1> 1]
for q A 0.

(d) Here we use induction. W0 ({) = 1, a polynomial of degree 0. Now assume that Wn ({) is a polynomial of degree n.
Then Wn+1 ({) = 2{Wn ({) Wn1 ({). By assumption, the leading term of Wn is dn {n , say, so the leading term of
Wn+1 is 2{dn {n = 2dn {n+1 , and so Wn+1 has degree n + 1.

(f ) The zeros of Wq ({) = cos(q arccos {) occur where q arccos { = n + 2 for some integer n, since then

cos(q arccos {) = cos n + 2 = 0. Note that there will be restrictions on n, since 0 arccos { . We

sin(q arccos {) = 0
q arccos { = n, n some integer arccos { = n@q. This has solutions for 0 n q, but we disallow the
cases n = 0 and n = q, since these give { = 1 and { = 1 respectively. So the local extrema of Wq ({) occur at
{ = cos(n@q), n an integer with 0 ? n ? q. [Again, this seems reasonable, since a polynomial of degree q has at
most (q 1) extrema.] By the First Derivative Test, the cases where n is even give maxima of Wq ({), since then
q arccos [cos(n@q)] = n is an even multiple of , so sin (q arccos {) goes from negative to positive at
{ = cos(n@q). Similarly, the cases where n is odd represent minima of Wq ({).
(g)
(h)
(i) From the graphs, it seems that the zeros of Wq and Wq+1 alternate; that is, between two adjacent zeros of Wq , there
is a zero of Wq+1 , and vice versa. The same is true of the {-coordinates of the extrema of Wq and Wq+1 : between the
{-coordinates of any two adjacent extrema of one, there is the {-coordinate of an extremum of the other.
( j) When q is odd, the function Wq ({) is odd, since all of its terms have odd degree, and so

1. (a) Since the smaller circle rolls without slipping around F, the amount of
arc traversed on F (2u in the gure) must equal the amount of arc of
the smaller circle that has been in contact with F. Since the smaller
circle has radius u, it must have turned through an angle of 2u@u = 2.
In addition to turning through an angle 2, the little circle has rolled
through an angle against F. Thus, S has turned through an angle of
3 as shown in the gure. (If the little circle had turned through an angle
of 2 with its center pinned to the {-axis, then S would have turned only 2 instead of 3. The movement of the
little circle around F adds to the angle.) From the gure, we see that the center of the small circle has coordinates
(3u cos > 3u sin ). Thus, S has coordinates ({> |), where { = 3u cos + e cos 3 and | = 3u sin + e sin 3.
(b)
e = 15 u
e = 25 u
e = 35 u
e = 45 u
(c) The diagram gives an alternate description of point S on the epitrochoid.

T moves around a circle of radius e, and S rotates one-third as fast with
respect to T at a distance of 3u. Place an equilateral triangle with sides of

length 3 3u so that its centroid is at T and one vertex is at S . (The
distance from the centroid to a vertex is
1
3
times the length of a side of
the equilateral triangle.)

As increases by
2
,
3
the point T travels once around the circle of radius
e, returning to its original position. At the same time, S (and the rest of the
triangle) rotate through an angle of
2
3
about T, so S s position is
occupied by another vertex. In this way, we see that the epitrochoid traced
out by S is simultaneously traced out by the other two vertices as well.
The whole equilateral triangle sits inside the epitrochoid (touching it only with its vertices) and each vertex traces
out the curve once while the centroid moves around the circle three times.
(d) We view the epitrochoid as being traced out in the same way as in part (c), by a rotor for which the distance from its
center to each vertex is 3u, so it has radius 6u. To show that the rotor ts inside the epitrochoid, it sufces to show
that for any position of the tracing point S , there are no points on the opposite side of the rotor which are outside
the epitrochoid. But the most likely case of intersection is when S is on the |-axis, so as long as the diameter of the

rotor (which is 3 3u) is less than the distance between the |-intercepts, the rotor will t. The |-intercepts occur
