how to go about
graphing this parametric equation
i know like
of the way is to
use this identity
$x = \sqrt{1-y^{2}}$

safe jewel
but why i can't use this
it gives me half circle
and not full
what is goin wrong
help!!
full river
Desmos gives me a full circle with radius 1.

it gives me half circle

Are you saying x cannot be negative?
Also there will be a plus or minus outside the sqrt.
safe jewel
y = sin(t)
t = sin^-1(y)
x = cos(sin^-1(y))
full river
Were you typing x = sqrt(1 - y^2) in desmos 💀?
safe jewel
$x =\pm\sqrt{1-y^{2}}$

safe jewel
right
safe jewel
Were you typing x = sqrt(1 - y^2) in desmos 💀?

Try it now.
safe jewel
its still a half circle
may be i have to put them
separately
ohhh it does
work
it does right

its still a half circle
...because it's interpreting "plus/minus" as a constant coefficient.

broooo i didn't
know
😭
lmao
thats why it didnt wirk this whole time
lmao
🗿
thank u guys!!!

That's what it means when it gives you that slider. That slider is so you can select the value of the constant.

ahhhh
is there a way to make it don't take it as
variable

Take something like a.
