Section 8

The parametric equations show that when t > 0, x > 2 and y > 0, so the domain of the Cartesian equation should be limited to x > 2. To ensure that the Cartesian equation is as equivalent as possible to the original parametric equation, we try to avoid using domain-restricted inverse functions, such as the inverse trig functions, when possible. ................
