These curves are arcs of epicycloids. In particular, the one tangent to the vertical line is half of the cardioid. If, for a positive integer $k$, you draw a line from $\alpha$ to $k\alpha$ modulo $2\pi$ for all $\alpha$, the envelope will be the complete epicycloid. This observation is due to Luigi Cremona. (And forFor $k$ negative, you get hypocycloids.)
This observation is due to Luigi Cremona.
