Example Question #81 :Parametric Form
Which of the following set of parametric equations parametrizes a section of parabola
? (Assume)
We can see that the parametric equations
describe a section of the parabola
because if do some manipulations of the parametric equations, we get
So then we get
which describes part of the parabola
.
Example Question #82 :Parametric Form
Which of the following parametric equations parametrizes an ellipse? (Assume that)
The parametric equations
describe an ellipse because we have
which means
which is the equation for an ellipse.

Example Question #88 :Parametric Form
Given the parametric equations
what is?
It is known that we can derivewith the formula
So we just find:
In order to find these derivatives we will need to use the power rule which states,
.
Applying the power rule we get the following.
so we have
.
Example Question #89 :Parametric Form
Given the parametric equations
what is?
It is known that we can derivewith the formula
So we just find:
To find the derivatives we will need to use trigonometric and exponential rules.
Trigonometric Rule for tangent:
Rules of Exponentials:
Thus, applying the above rules we get the following derivatives.
so we have
.
Example Question #90 :Parametric Form
Find the arc length of the curve:
Finding the length of the curve requires simply applying the formula:
Where:
Since we are also givenand, we can easily compute the derivatives of each:
Applying these into the above formula results in:
This is one of the answer choices.
