Parametric app
The Parametric app enables you to explore parametric
equations. These are equations in which both
x
and
y
are
defined as functions of
t
. They take the forms
and
.
Getting started with the Parametric app
The Parametric app uses the customary app views:
Symbolic, Plot and Numeric described in chapter 4.
For a description of the menu buttons available in this
app, see:
•
“Symbolic view: Summary of menu buttons” on
page 76
•
“Plot view: Summary of menu buttons” on page 86,
and
•
“Numeric view: Summary of menu buttons” on
page 94
Throughout this chapter, we will explore the parametric
equations
x
(
T
) = 8sin(
T
) and
y
(
T
) = 8cos(
T
). These
equations produce a circle.

Select
Parametric
The Parametric
app starts in
Symbolic view.
This is the
defining
view
. It is where you symbolically define (that is,
specify) the parametric expressions you want to
explore.
