\(\begin{aligned} & x=-3+4 \cos \theta \\
& y=1+4 \sin \theta\end{aligned}\)

  1. \((x+3)^2+(y-1)^2=4\)
  2. \((x-3)^2+(y+1)^2=4\)
  3. \((x+3)^2+(y-1)^2=16\)
  4. \((x-3)^2+(y+1)^2=16\)

\(C\)

Show Worked Solution

\(x=-3+4 \cos\, \theta\ \Rightarrow \ \cos\,\theta=\dfrac{x+3}{4} \)

\(y=1+4 \sin\, \theta\ \Rightarrow \ \sin\,\theta=\dfrac{y-1}{4} \)

\(\text{Using}\ \ \sin^{2}\theta + \cos^{2}\theta=1:\)

\( \Big(\dfrac{x+3}{4}\Big)^{2} + \Big(\dfrac{y-1}{4}\Big)^{2}\) \(=1\)  
\((x+3)^2+(y-1)^2\) \(=16\)  

 
\(\Rightarrow C\)

A function is defined parametrically by

   `x(t) = 5cos(2t) + 1,\ \ y(t) = 5sin(2t)-1`

If  `A(6, –1)`  and  `B(1, 4)`  are two points that lie on the graph of the function, then find the shortest distance along the graph from `A` to `B`.   (2 marks)

`(5pi)/2`

Show Worked Solution

`x = 5cos(2t) + 1 \ => \ cos(2t) = (x-1)/5`

`y = 5sin(2t)-1 \ => \ sin(2t) = (y + 1)/5`

`(cos(2t))^2 + (sin(2t))^2` `=1`  
`(x-1)^2 + (y + 1)^2` `=25`

`(x-2) = 3cost, \ (y + 3) = 3sint`

`(x-2)^2 + (y + 3)^2` `= (3cost)^2 + (3sint)^2`
  `= 9cos^2t + 9sin^2t`
