Abstract
Suppose we consider P and Q have coordinates 1 1 (x , y ) , 2 2 (x , y ) and we also
consider the classes of y = y(x) functions , that the boundary conditions 1 1 y(x ) = y
and 2 2 y(x ) = y they are true and Its curves should joins P andQ points. In that case
the purpose of finding a function of this class to minimize the integral

I y = f x y y dx . It should be noted this review only shows that if I (y) a
steady value has. In that case the corresponding steady curve should be a straight line.
But, we know from geometry that I (y) doesn’t have maximizing curve but a minimizing
curve has. So we conclude that it is practically the shortest connecting curve of two points.
