1. Substitute t=a into x(t) to find x-coordinate. 2. Substitute t=a into y(t) to find y-coordinate. 3. Position is (x(a), y(a)).

1. Check for x^2 and y^2 terms. 2. If both are present and have the same coefficient, it's a circle. 3. If both are present and have different coefficients but the same sign, it's an ellipse. 4. If one is present, it's a parabola. 5. If both are present with opposite signs, it's a hyperbola.

1. Ensure A and B have the same dimensions. 2. Add corresponding elements: (A+B)[i,j] = A[i,j] + B[i,j].

1. For matrix [[a, b], [c, d]], multiply ad and bc. 2. Subtract: determinant = ad - bc.

1. Let x = rcos(t). 2. Let y = rsin(t).

1. Add the x-components: a + c. 2. Add the y-components: b + d. 3. Result: u + v = <a+c, b+d>.

1. Complete the square for both x and y terms. 2. Rewrite the equation in the form (x-h)^2 + (y-k)^2 = r^2.

$x = r \cos(t)$, $y = r \sin(t)$

$||v|| = \sqrt{a^2 + b^2}$

$v(t) = r'(t) = <\frac{dx}{dt}, \frac{dy}{dt}>$

$Speed = ||v(t)|| = \sqrt{(\frac{dx}{dt})^2 + (\frac{dy}{dt})^2}$

$a(t) = v'(t) = r''(t) = <\frac{d^2x}{dt^2}, \frac{d^2y}{dt^2}>$

$det([[a, b], [c, d]]) = ad - bc$

$(x-h)^2 + (y-k)^2 = r^2$

$\frac{(x-h)^2}{a^2} + \frac{(y-k)^2}{b^2} = 1$

$\frac{(x-h)^2}{a^2} - \frac{(y-k)^2}{b^2} = 1$ or $\frac{(y-k)^2}{a^2} - \frac{(x-h)^2}{b^2} = 1$

$x = f(t), y = g(t)$

Functions that define x and y coordinates using a parameter, often 't', allowing representation of motion along a path.

Functions defined by a relationship between x and y, not explicitly solved for y, such as conic sections.

Mathematical objects with magnitude and direction, used to represent physical quantities like force, velocity, and displacement.

Rectangular arrays of numbers used to represent linear transformations, solve systems of equations, and perform complex operations.

Shapes formed by slicing a cone, including circles, ellipses, parabolas, and hyperbolas, all examples of implicitly defined functions.

Functions that output vectors, used to describe the position of a moving object over time, essential for understanding motion in physics and engineering.

The derivatives dx/dt and dy/dt represent the rates of change of x and y with respect to the parameter t, indicating speed and direction.

Matrices can transform vectors, which is crucial in linear algebra and computer graphics for operations like scaling, rotation, and translation.

Expressing implicitly defined functions using parameters (like 't') to make graphing and analysis easier, especially for complex shapes.

The determinant indicates whether the matrix is invertible; a non-zero determinant means the matrix has an inverse.
