Making More Tracks
The tangent to the curve at the point of contact of the back wheel
is f'(x), the angle to the curve being the inverse tangent of this
function.
The front wheel is located at a distance 1 along this tangent. The
change in the x coordinates is therefore cos(a) and the change in
the y coordinate is sin(a), where a is the angle
Arctan(f'(x)).
so rear is (x, f(x)) means that front is (x+cos(Atan(f'(x)), f (x)+
sin(atan(f'(x)))
You can see this in action in the linked spreadsheet (not for
release in the problem). The charts of the motion are



The key conjecture is when the rear wheel follows a sin curve then
so does the front wheel with an offset of pi/2
since
sin(atan(cos))
= sin(atan(cos -pi/2)-pi/2)
=cos(atin(sin)) (give or take some minus signs
Other conjectures may involve the observation that the curvature of
the front path is not less than the curvature of the rear path.
