Integral formula for secantoptics and its application
Some properties of secantoptics of ovals defined by Skrzypiec in 2008 were proved by Mozgawa and Skrzypiec in 2009. In this paper we generalize to this case results obtained by Cieślak, Miernowski and Mozgawa in 1996 and derive an integral formula for an annulus bounded by a given oval and its secantoptic. We describe the change of the area bounded by a secantoptic and find the differential equation for this function. We finish with some examples illustrating the above results.
