These motions are equal, for, in the time ofone revolution of the generating circle, the describing point moves by its progressive motionthrough the space B B, while by its motion of rotation it moves through a space equal to thecircumference of the circle. Suppose the circle to roll from the position A in which the describingpoint P coincides with the vertex of the cycloid, to the position L in which the describing point hasmoved to P
