Step 2: Press the
Step 3: Press
Step 4: Press
Figure (1)
If
If
Therefore, the graph of the parametric equations is shown in figure (1), the initial point is
(b)
To find: The Cartesian equation for a curve that contains the parameterized curve and the portion of the graph of the Cartesian equation that is traced by the parameterized curve.
(b)
Answer to Problem 13E
The Cartesian equation for a curve that contains the parameterized curve is
Explanation of Solution
Given information: The equations are
Calculation:
Rewrite the parametric equations as
Add the equations
As shown in the graph, the parameterized curve traces right half of the ellipse defined by
Therefore, the Cartesian equation for a curve that contains the parameterized curve is
