parametric Flashcards
1
Q
parametrically in terms of theta
For a circle, centre (0, 0) and radius r
x =
y =
A
x = rcos θ
y = rsin θ
2
Q
For a circle, centre (a, b) and radius r
x =
y=
A
x = rcos θ + a
y = rsin θ + b
3
Q
parametrically in terms of t and x
At vertical (parallel to y-axis) tangents, _____ = 0
A
dx/dt = 0
4
Q
At horizontal (parallel to the x-axis) tangents, …… = 0
A
dy/dt
5
Q
How to integrate parametric curve
A
R=∫ ((y)(dx/dt)) dt
Make sure to change Bounds in terms of t
