On the fluid free boundary write , with : the lip has and the downstream limit has . Then
Substitution into the relation from part (ii) gives
The surface lies on the top of the velocity potential strip, so its logarithm has imaginary part , giving
Finally , and therefore
The source's typeset is interpreted as , as the derivation requires.
