Thank you. That helps a lot. My teacher did not teach us this, so I had to learn this on my own.

My professors only went over how to work with trigonometric identities to solve these. Never once was it stated to solve for t and set them equal to each other! This is so much simpler than they made it!

There exists a general way for cartesian to parametric: f(x) -> (x = t, y=f(t))
But is there no general way for the other way around (parametric to cartesian)? if i have a parametric equation with x = a(t) and y = b(t), there's no way to generally describe this in cartesian form as f(x)?

This is pretty useful. Thanks for the help.

Very helpful! Thank you!

2D ones are pretty straightforward, need help with 3D ones. Back to google search!

yoooo I'm looking for that exact method. Did you ever find out 2 years ago

@@Dish.Washer same, did you ever find out 2 years ago?
