Answer:

a) [tex]x=a\cdot cos(b), y=-a\cdot sin(b), 0 \leq b \leq 2\pi[/tex]

b) [tex]x=a\cdot cos(b), y=a\cdot sin(b), 0 \leq b \leq 2\pi[/tex]

c) [tex]x=a\cdot cos(b), y=-a\cdot sin(b), 0 \leq b \leq 6\pi[/tex]

d) [tex]x=a\cdot cos(b), y=a\cdot sin(b), 0 \leq b \leq 6\pi[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

The parametric equation for a circle is:

[tex]x=a\cdot cos(b)[/tex]

[tex]y=a\cdot sin(b)[/tex]

Where a is the radius and b is the angular displacement.

a) If a is negative in y and 0 ≤ b ≤ 2π, we have clockwise moves.

[tex]x=a\cdot cos(b), y=-a\cdot sin(b), 0 \leq b \leq 2\pi[/tex]

b)  If a is positive in y and 0 ≤ b ≤ 2π, we have counterclockwise moves.

[tex]x=a\cdot cos(b), y=a\cdot sin(b), 0 \leq b \leq 2\pi[/tex]

c) If a is negative in y and 0 ≤ b ≤ 6π, we have three times clockwise moves.

[tex]x=a\cdot cos(b), y=-a\cdot sin(b), 0 \leq b \leq 6\pi[/tex]

d) If a is positive in y and 0 ≤ b ≤ 6π, we have three times counterclockwise moves.

[tex]x=a\cdot cos(b), y=a\cdot sin(b), 0 \leq b \leq 6\pi[/tex]

Have a nice day!
