- Sketch and describe the orientation of the curve given by the parametric equations x=2tandy=4t2+2,2t2.arrow_forwardShooting into the Wind Suppose that a projectile is fired into a headwind that pushes it back so as to reduce its horizontal speed by a constant amount . Find parametric equations for the path of the projectile.arrow_forwardEpicycloid If the circle C of Exercise 63 rolls on the outside of the larger circle, the curve traced out by P is called an epicycloid. Find parametric equations for the epicycloid. Hypocycloid A circle C of radius b rolls on the inside of a larger circle of radius a centered at the origin. Let P be a fixed point on the smaller circle, with the initial position at the point (a,0) as shown in the figure. The curve traced out by P is called a hypocycloid. a Show that parametric equations of hypocycloid are x=(ab)cos+bcos(abb) y=(ab)sinbsin(abb) b If a=4b, the hypocycloid is called an asteroid. Show that in this case parametric equations can be reduced to x=acos3y=asin3 Sketch the curve. Eliminate the parameter to obtain an equation for the asteroid in rectangular coordinates.arrow_forward
