Short Answer

Give an example of a parametrization of the ellipse

x2+y24=1

in 2 . See Example .

cost2sint is a parametrization of the ellipse x2+y24=1 in 2 .

See the step by step solution

Step by Step Solution

Step 1: Consider the parameters.

The image of a function consists of all the values the function takes in its target space. If f is a function from X to Y, then

imagef=fx:x in X =b in Y:b=fx,for some x in X

The standard form of an ellipse is, x2a2+y2b2=1

The parametrization of this ellipse is,

x=acost,y=bsintxy=acostbsint

The ellipse equation is, x21+y24=1

The parametrization of this ellipse is,

x=1cost,Y=2sintxy=1cost2sint

Step 2: Final answer.

cost2sint is a parametrization of the ellipse x2+y24=1 in 2 .
