What information disappears when time is eliminated?
- Two coordinates can change together as a third variable changes. Eliminating that variable can hide which part of the curve was traced.
- This lesson studies parameter 参数: A variable that determines both coordinates of a point.
Choose the mathematical structure
- For x=f(t), y=g(t), express t from one equation if possible and substitute into the other. Transfer the parameter interval to the Cartesian curve and mark the direction of increasing t. With trigonometric parameters, use identities and keep sign or branch restrictions.
- State the allowed inputs and units before calculating. An equation should express the relationship, not just record a calculator entry.
Qual descrição define corretamente parâmetro?
Variável que determina ambas as coordenadas de um ponto.
Work through a checked case
- Check the result against the starting quantities. Substitute into the original relation, or compare the graph and numerical answer where appropriate.
For x=2t+1, y=t²−2 and 0≤t≤3, t=(x−1)/2 gives y=(x−1)²/4−2 with 1≤x≤7. The point moves from (1,−2) to (7,7). For x=t², y=t and −2≤t≤2, the relation is x=y² with −2≤y≤2: both signs of y occur. For x=3cosθ, y=2sinθ and 0≤θ≤π, x²/9+y²/4=1 with y≥0; increasing θ traces the upper half from (3,0) to (−3,0). Conversely, y=x² with −1≤x≤2 can be parametrised by x=t, y=t² and −1≤t≤2.

Para x=f(t), y=g(t), expresse t a partir de uma equação se possível e substitua na outra
Identifique quais afirmações preservam o parâmetro original, o segmento da curva e as premissas contextuais.
Para x=2t+1, encontre x quando t=3.
x=2×3+1=7.
Test a tempting shortcut
- Writing y=√x from x=t²,y=t loses the part where t is negative. A Cartesian equation alone does not record direction or the original parameter interval. Squaring can erase a sign restriction.
- When a shortcut fails, identify the assumption it breaks. Keep an exact value until the requested final rounding.
Eliminating a parameter always preserves the original domain and direction automatically. This claim is false. Explain which definition or assumption it violates.
Para y=t²−2, encontre y quando t=3.
y=3²−2=7.
A eliminação de um parâmetro preserva automaticamente o domínio original e a direção.
Escrever y=√x a partir de x=t², y=t perde a parte em que t é negativo. Uma equação cartesiana isolada não registra direção ou o intervalo original do parâmetro. Elevar ao quadrado pode apagar uma restrição de sinal.
Interpret a new situation
- Use a table of parameter values to sketch endpoints and intermediate points. A parameter can revisit an x value or a whole point. Check the original equations and interval when converting back to parametric form.
- A complete solution gives the mathematical result and explains what it means. Check that it is possible in the stated context.
Para x=t², y=t com t≤0, encontre y quando x=4.
Como t≤0 e t²=4, escolha t=−2; logo y=−2.
