Parametric Equations

by Kasey Nored

We want to explore parametric equations and begin looking at


where 0 < t <2p.

 a and b are equal

a = 2 and b = 1

a = 1 and b = 2

As you can see above a drives our apparent x value and b drives our apparent y value.

 

For a bit of further exploration we want to look at the following equations

 

above a and b are equal

here a = 2 and b = 1

and a = 1 and b = 2

 

 

a = b

 

a = 1 and b = 2

 

 

a = 2 and b = 1
