Exploring Parametric Equations

What type of equations are typically used before learning about parametric equations?

• Linear equations

• Rectangular equations

• Differential equations

• Integral equations

In parametric equations, what determines the values of X and Y?

• A constant

• An external parameter

• The variable Y itself

• None of the above

What is the parameter in the unit circle parametric equation?

• Diameter

• Circumference

• Radius

• Theta

At what time does the red plane reach the point (300, 500)?

• 2 hours

• 3 hours

• 1 hour

• 0 hours

Which plane crosses the point (600, 600) first?

• Plane 2

• Plane 1

• Neither

• Both at the same time

Why is there no risk of collision between the two planes?

• They cross the same point at different times

• They fly at different altitudes

• They are flying in opposite directions

• They are not real planes

What is the new form of the equation after eliminating the parameter T for plane 1?

• y = x + 800

• y = -x + 800

• y = 2x + 800

• y = x - 800

• 1 second

• 4 seconds

• 3 seconds

• 2 seconds

What is the maximum height reached by the football?

• 1 foot

• 2 feet

• 3 feet

• 4 feet

What type of model represents the football's trajectory?

• Logarithmic

• Quadratic

• Linear

• Exponential
