Studying Graphs
• Recall that a function, y = f(x) is intersected no more than once by a vertical line
• Other graphs exist that are not functions We seek to study characteristics
of such graphs How do we determine the slope
at a point on the graph (for aparticular value of t)?
We will use parametric equations
We will use parametric equations

Derivative of Parametric Equations
• Consider the graph ofx = 2 sin t, y = cos t
• We seek the slope, thatis
• For parametric equations

Try It Out
• Find dy/dx for the given parametric equations x = t + 3
y = t2 + 1
• What is the slope of the line tangent to the graph when t = 2?
• What is the slope of the line tangent to the graph when x = 2?

Second Derivatives
• The second derivative is the derivative of the first derivative
• But the first derivative is a function of t We seek the derivative with respect to x We must use the chain rule
