Parametric Equations for the Unit Circle

< Prev
Next >

Consider the parameterization given by the equations x(t)=cos(t)x(t)=\cos(t) and y(t)=sin(t)y(t)=\sin(t), which corresponds to the rectangular equation x2+y2=1x^2+y^2=1.

I. Substituting the parametric equations into the rectangular equation results in the identity cos2(t)+sin2(t)=1\cos^2(t)+\sin^2(t)=1.

II. The curve traced by the parameterization is only the upper half of the circle.

III. The parameterization represents a circle with a radius of 1.

Which of the above statements are true?

A

Only statements II and III are true.

B

All statements I, II, and III are true.

C

Only statement I is true.

D

Only statements I and III are true.
