This module assumes that you already know how to graph
y(x)
functions as described in
Basic Function Graphing. This section describes the differences that apply to parametric
equations.

to set
Graph = PARAMETRIC
before you define equations or set Window
variables. The Y= Editor and the Window Editor let you enter information for the
current

Defining Parametric Equations on the Y= Editor
To graph a parametric equation, you must define both its x and y components. If you
define only one component, the equation cannot be graphed. (However, you can use
single components to generate an automatic table as described in
Tables.
)
Enter x and y components on
separate lines.
You can define xt1(t) through
xt99(t) and yt1(t) through yt99(t).
