For inferior trochoid or inferior epitrochoid the curve touches the directing line or directing circle.

For inferior trochoid or inferior epitrochoid the curve touches the directing line or directing circle. Correct Answer False

Since in the inferior trochoids the generating point is inside the generating circle the path will be at a distance from directing line or circle even if the generating circle is inside or outside the directing circle.
