1.3.7 Parametric equations of curves (A-level only)

For x=f(t)x=f(t)x=f(t) and y=g(t)y=g(t)y=g(t), what point is produced by t=kt=kt=k?

A

The point (f(k),g(k))(f(k),g(k))(f(k),g(k)).

B

Eliminating the parameter means obtaining an equation containing only xxx and yyy.

C

Substitute the parametrisation and obtain an identity.

D

1≤x≤51\leq x\leq51≤x≤5.
