Cyclogon
text:
In geometry, a cyclogon is the curve traced by a vertex of a regular polygon that rolls without slipping along a straight line. In the limit, as the number of sides increases to infinity, the cyclogon becomes a cycloid. The cyclogon has an interesting property regarding its area. Let A denote the area of the region above the line and below one of the arches, let P denote the area of the rolling polygon, and let C denote the area of the disk that circumscribes the
polygon. For every cyclogon gene
