PARAMETRIC EQUATIONS Graphing Plane Curves (Page 2 of 6)

Let's graph the plane curve for the parametric equations x = t^2, y = t+1. First define the functions in the function editor. Notice the function editor has changed to accept pairs of functions. We will use the function names X1T and Y1T. In this mode, the X,T,theta,n key. key we normally use for x will give us the parameter t.
