Answer 1

@ganeshie8

Answer 2

what happens when you add x + y

Answer 3

x + y = cos^2(t) + sin^2(t) = ?

Answer 4

hint, use pythagorean trig identity

Answer 5

also keep in mind that x and y are both positive, since cos^2 and sin^2 are positive.
so the graph will be in quadrant 1

Answer 6

omg got it now

Answer 7

@perl what about this one x=sin^2t and y=sin^4t
