Two-Dimensional Parametric Plots
Description
Sage can do parametric plots. Below is how Sage plots
(1)\begin{align} x(t) &= \cos t + 2 \cos(t/4) \\ y(t) &= \sin t - 2 \sin(t/4) \end{align}
for $0 < t < 8\pi$.
Sage Cell
Code
t = var('t')
parametric_plot([cos(t) + 2 * cos(t/4), sin(t) - 2 * sin(t/4)], (t,0, 8*pi))
Options
Option
To fill a parametric plot, use the option fill = True. The default is fill = False.
Code
t = var('t')
parametric_plot([cos(t) + 2 * cos(t/4), sin(t) - 2 * sin(t/4)], (t,0, 8*pi), fill=True)
