In 934, because different rounding results in different estimates, there is

Chapter 10, Problem 38

(choose chapter or problem)

Serpentine Curve Consider the parametric equations \(x=2 \cot \theta\) and \(y=4 \sin \theta \cos \theta, 0<\theta<\pi\).

(a) Use a graphing utility to graph the curve.

(b) Eliminate the parameter to show that the rectangular equation of the serpentine curve is \(\left(4+x^{2}\right) y=8 x\).

Text Transcription:

x=2 cot theta

y=4 sin theta cos theta, 0<theta<pi

(4+x^2)y=8x
