Construct working models to demonstrate the problem of Tautochrone (same time curve) and brachistochrone (least time curve) see [11]. You can also use GeoGebra to simulate the construction. Figure 5 shows cycloids constructed as path traced by points on the circumference of a circle rolling along a line.
