The correct Answer is:
To find the parametric point on the circle given by the equation \( x^2 + y^2 = a^2 \), we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Identify the Circle's Center and Radius The equation of the circle \( x^2 + y^2 = a^2 \) represents a circle centered at the origin (0, 0) with a radius \( r = a \). ### Step 2: Write the Parametric Equations For a circle, the parametric equations can be expressed in terms of an angle \( \theta \): - The x-coordinate is given by \( x = r \cos \theta \) - The y-coordinate is given by \( y = r \sin \theta \) ### Step 3: Substitute the Radius Since we have identified that the radius \( r \) is equal to \( a \), we substitute \( r \) in the parametric equations: - \( x = a \cos \theta \) - \( y = a \sin \theta \) ### Step 4: Write the Parametric Point Thus, the parametric point on the circle can be represented as: \[ (x, y) = (a \cos \theta, a \sin \theta) \] ### Final Answer The parametric point on the circle \( x^2 + y^2 = a^2 \) is: \[ (a \cos \theta, a \sin \theta) \] ---
