Hi I hope this is ok. I thought the original did no justice to Newton's approach to the problem. |

Even its application of the Euler-Lagrange equation was not too pretty since it produced a complicated expression that simplifies to the differential equation: <math> y \ddot{y}(3 - \dot{y}^2) + \dot{y}^2 (1 + \dot{y}^2) = 0 </math> |

It is my intention to add Newton's method of proof to this article, if that is deemed desirable. |
