CHAPTER V.

Problems Involving Averaging.

Demonstration of Principles Involved.

The General Equation is
A = t × c × r ... (1)
in which
A = Area of the figure traced.
t = Length of Tracer Arm.
c = Circumference of the Integrating Wheel.
r = No. Revolutions of Wheel due to tracing the given figure.
