Well I may have figured it out. At least found a step toward the solution. I realized that the equation I had for the distance from the center of the small diameter to the outside of the large diameter was the equation of a circle in polar coordinates. So if I can integrate that equation from a...

Hi, here is my geometry problem. I have two circles, one inside the other. The larger diameter is denoted by D, and the smaller by d. Their centers are eccentric by a distance e. Now, there is a line from the center of the smaller circle to the outside of the larger circle. I have derived an...
