  • Thanks to all of you who support me on Patreon. You da real mvps! $1 per month helps!! :) / patrickjmt !! * IN MY FIRST EXAMPLE, THERE IS A 'SMALL' MISTAKE. INSTEAD OF GRAPHING t ON THE INTERVAL [0,5] I ACTUALLY USE [0,4]. SORRY FOR ANY CONFUSION!!*
    Parametric Curves - Basic Graphing. In this video, I discuss some of the very basics about graphing parametric curves. One example of eliminating the parameter is shown.

  • @thenateman27
    @thenateman27 10 років тому +1

    No, because the graph of the parametric curve is based off of x=root(t).
    Negative t values would result in imaginary numbers. In Eliminating the parameter, he squared the root(t), but the implied domain of "t is greater than or equal to 0" still remains. So really, the cartesian version exactly is y=1-x^2 where x is greater than or equal to 0.
    Hope this helps

    On a side note, the new way your page is setup is really hard to find the videos you're looking for. The text isn't searchable and there is no discernible method to how the videos are laid out in the categories. Before you at least had the videos in the order a person would encounter them in a math class, but not they are just all thrown together. Not complaining, but trying to give ya a little feedback.

    My understanding about graphs of curve is.....you have to have the understanding about the nature of them...unlike graphs of straight lines you cannot plug in x and y values by brute calculation....so you need to understand the nature...e.g graph of parabola is y= ax^2. if a is positive the graph is curved upwards and if a is negative the graph is curved downwards...also the value of a has correlation with the width of parabola.....and of course...graphing calculators and computers can graph curves well...but we as people have to have understanding of the curve natures...
