Explanation Given: y = ± 2 r x − p x 2 t ( y ) = R 2 − S 2 − R 2 − y 2 − r 2 − S 2 + r 2 − y 2 Formula used: Curvature is given as: k = | f ' ' ( y ) | ( 1 + ( f ' ( y ) ) 2 ) 3 2 Proof: We have been given the equation y = ± 2 r x − p x 2 . Let us solve this equation for x in terms of y . ⇒ y = ± 2 r x − p x 2 ⇒ y 2 = ( ± 2 r x − p x 2 ) 2 ⇒ y 2 = 2 r x − p x 2 ⇒ p x 2 − 2 r x + y 2 = 0 Let us solve this quadratic using quadratic formula to represent x in terms of y . ⇒ p x 2 − 2 r x + y 2 = 0 ⇒ x = − ( − 2 r ) ± 4 r 2 − 4 p y 2 2 p ⇒ x = 2 r ± 4 ( r 2 − p y 2 ) 2 p = 2 r ± 2 r 2 − p y 2 2 p ⇒ x = r ± r 2 − p y 2 p ⇒ x = p − 1 ( r − r 2 − p y 2 ) Since we have been given that after surgery the cross-section of cornea has the equation x = f ( y ) + t ( y ) . x ' = p − 1 ( r − r 2 − p y 2 ) + R 2 − S 2 − R 2 − y 2 − r 2 − S 2 + r 2 − y 2 We have to now find its curvature at point P ( y = 0 ) . Let us first find the derivatives of first and second order and then plug those expressions to get the curvature: ⇒ x = p − 1 ( r − r 2 − p y 2 ) + R 2 − S 2 − R 2 − y 2 − r 2 − S 2 + r 2 − y 2 ⇒ x ' = p − 1 ( 0 − − 2 p y 2 r 2 − p y 2 ) + 0 − − 2 y 2 R 2 − y 2 − 0 + − 2 y 2 r 2 − y 2 ⇒ x ' = p − 1 ( p y r 2 − p y 2 ...

Maximization

Have you ever seen a bridge in the shape of a parabola? Where is its maximum on the bridge? The maximum of that bridge is the highest point on that bridge. The process of finding the maximum of the bridge here is called the maximization.
