the coordinates of cycloide are
##x= a (\theta- sin \theta)##
##y= a(cos \theta -1)##
If i use ##\theta =\omega t## this is a example of cycloid
but, if i use ##\theta=\cos (\omega t)##, ¿this is a cycloid?
My teacher says that in a cycloid pendulum ##\theta## must be oscillatory, but i think that if ##\theta=\cos \omega t## then, this is not cycloid.
Also the dynamics of the pendulum on the cycloid is oscillatory, but, the ##x= a (\theta- sin \theta)## is not oscillatory.
