1. the parametric function is given by , where and for .
for what values of will the - and -coordinates be equal?
(A) and
(B) and
(C) only
(D) only



Ans: C

Correct. The values for are found by solving , which is . The solutions to
the equation are and . Because of the restricted domain of , is the only value
where the - and -coordinates are equal.

in quadrant iv in the -plane. which of the following could define ?
(A)
(B)
(C)

(D)



Answer C

Correct. The values of are positive, and the values of are negative. The graph of this
parametric function is entirely in Quadrant IV.

3.




values for the parametric function are given in the table at selected values of . on which
of the following intervals of are the start point and end point of the graph of farthest from each other?
(A)
(B)
(C)
(d)



Answer B

Correct. By using the Pythagorean Theorem, the distance between the start and end points on this
interval is . On this interval, the start and end points of the graph of are farthest from each other.
