Graph, specified parametrically
To plot the curve, specified parametrically in Cartesian coordinates {x=X(t), y=Y(t)}
select Parametric in the Choose Curve Type window, press OK and enter curve definition
in one of the following formats:
(X(t),Y(t)) to define graph for the full range of argument
(X(t),Y(t));A,B to define graph for j in the segment [A,B] only,
where X(t), Y(t) are expressions, depending only on variable t
A,B - numbers,
Tip. Expressions can contain other variables, if they have numeric values.
To change name change name of a variable, associated with parameter,
select Command-> Graph Property and change the name on the Names tab.
Examples:
(x=3*sin(t),y=5*cos(t))
(x=3*sin(t),y=5*cos(t));0,pi defines the same graph in [0, p]
