What
Up to the end of the first year of A-Level you have worked with equations that describe a relationship between two variables, usually x and y. These equations are called Cartesian equations. In this topic you will learn how relationships between 2 variables can be described using a 3rd variable (or parameter). These are called parametric equations.
The topic covers:
What is a parametric equation?
How to convert between parametric and Cartesian forms
Differentiation of parametric equations
Integration of parametric equations
The application of parametric equations to real problems (modelling)

Integration
