Consider the line segment AB with endpoints A (-3,5) and B(3,2)
a) Find a parametrization for segment AB using A as the initial point and B as the terminal point
b) Find a parametrization for segment AB from part (a) using B as the initial point and A as the terminal point
There are other parts but they involve graphing. I'll write them regardless and maybe you can provide guidance as to how to graph them?
c) Sketch and describe the graph of the curve parametrized by
x= 1- 3cos^2t, y= -2+4sin^2t, -∞ < t< ∞
d) Consider the graph of the curve parametrized by x= 1- (3/t), y= 2 - (4/t), 1 ≤ t < ∞
Is the graph related to the one drawn in part (c)? Explain.
Any help whatsoever on these would be much appreciated. I have no base knowledge of the subject and am struggling in teaching myself. Please explain as completely as possible so that I can do similar problems on my own. Thanks so much and 10 points to the best answer.
