Q7. Consider a large circle of radius R > 0 centered at the origin. Suppose that a small circle of radius r< R is centered at (0,R + r). Let c(0) be a marked point (0,R + 2r). Allow the small circle to travel with angular velocity d0/dt =1 around the outside of the large circle while remaining tangent to it. Parametrize the curve c(t) traced by the marked point
