Parametric Equations · Exercise 41

Parameterize (write parametric equations for) each Cartesian equation by using $x (t) = a cos t$ and $y (t) = b s in t .$ Identify the curve.

Parameterize the line from $(4, 1)$ to $(6, - 2)$ so that the line is at $(4, 1)$ at $t = 0,$ and at $(6, - 2)$ at $t = 1.$
