Reference 12 contains inviscid theory calculations for the
upper and lower surface velocity distributions V(x) over an
airfoil, where x is the chordwise coordinate. A typical re-
sult for small angle of attack is as follows:

Use these data, plus Bernoulli's equation, to estimate
(a) the lift coefficient and (b) the angle of attack if the
airfoil is symmetric.
