You can write the x- and y-coordinates of each point on a curve as functions of a third variable.
This variable is called a parameter and is often represented by the letter 1
= Acurve can be defined using parametric equations x = p(t) and y= q(f). Each value of the
parameter, t, defines a point on the curve with coordinates (p(0. q(t).

{y-coordinate, and more than one point on
the curve can have the same x-coordinate.
You can convert between parametric Hi
equations and Cartesian equations by using
substitution to eliminate the parameter.
You can use the domain and range of the parametric functions to find the domain and range of the
resulting Cartesian function.
