directrix= 35mm and eccentricity is 4/3. Also, draw the tangent normal lines at any point on the curve. 8. An inelastic string of 150mm length has one of its ends attached to the

circumference of a circular disc of 40mm diameter. Draw the cure traced by the other end of the string when it is completely unwound around the disc keeping the string always tight. Also, draw the tangent & normal to the obtained curve at a point 100mm away from the center of the disc. 9. Draw the locus of a point P moving so that the ratio of the distance from a fixed

point F to its distance from a fixed straight line is 1. The point P is at a distance of 30 mm from the fixed straight line. Also, the draw tangent and normal to the generated curve. 10. Draw the locus of a point which moves in a plane in such a way that the ratio of its

distances from a fixed point F and a fixed straight line AB is always distance between 2/3. The distance between the fixed point F and fixed straight line is 50mm. Also, draw a tangent and normal on a point on the locus at a horizontal distance of 55mm from the fixed straight line.

clockwise direction. Draw the tangent and normal at a point located on the involute. 12. Draw the locus of a point P moving so that the ratio of the distance from a fixed

point F to its distance from a fixed straight line is . Point F is at a distance of 35 mm from the fixed straight line. Also draw the tangent and normal to the curve. 13. A circular wheel of 40mm diameter rolls without slipping along a straight line. Draw

the curve traced by a point P lying on the rim for 1.25 revolution of the wheel. Name the curve traced. Also draw the tangent and normal at a point P when the wheel has travelled 80mm from its starting position. 14. Draw a circle of 50mm diameter rolls as a horizontal for half of revolution clockwise

and the on a line inclined at 60 to the horizontal for another half clockwise. Draw the curve traced by a point on the circumference of the circle taking the topmost point of the rolling circle as the initial position of the generating point. 15.
