In Exercises 1315 find two different sets of parametric equa
     In Exercises 13-15, find two different sets of parametric equations for the given rec- tangular equation. (There are many correct answers.)  
  
  Solution
14. x +y^2 = 4
first part : x=t and y= sqrt(4-x) = sqrt(4-t)
Now 2nd part : x=y; Let rearrange equ: y^2= 4-x
Let 4-x = t^2--> x= 4-t^2
y = sqrt(4-x) = t
So, y=t ; x= 4-t^2
we have two sets of parameteric equation
15 ) x^2 +4y^2 -16 =0
First part : x=t ;
4y^2 = 16 -x^2
y= sqrt[(16-x^2)/4] = sqrt[(16 - t^2)/4]
y =sqrt[(16 - t^2)/4]
x=t
2nd part : Lets re-arrange the equation :
x^2 +4y^2 = 16
x^2/16 +y^2/4 =1
Let x= 4t
So, 16t^2/16 +y^2/4 =1
y^2/4 = 1-t^2
y^2 = 4(1 - t^2)
y = 2sqrt[1- t^2]
x= 4t
We have two sets of parametric equation
