The correct Answer is:
To find the curve \( C \) in parametric form, we start with the given conditions and derive the necessary equations step by step. ### Step 1: Understand the problem We know that the curve \( C \) passes through the point \( (0, 1) \) and has a negative slope. The tangent at any point \( P \) on the curve meets the x-axis at point \( Q \) such that the length \( PQ = 1 \). ### Step 2: Use the formula for the length of the tangent The length of the tangent from a point \( P(x, y) \) on the curve to the x-axis can be expressed using the formula: \[ PQ = \frac{y}{\sqrt{1 + \left(\frac{dy}{dx}\right)^2}} \] Given that \( PQ = 1 \), we can set up the equation: \[ 1 = \frac{y}{\sqrt{1 + \left(\frac{dy}{dx}\right)^2}} \] ### Step 3: Rearranging the equation Squaring both sides gives: \[ 1 = \frac{y^2}{1 + \left(\frac{dy}{dx}\right)^2} \] Rearranging this, we find: \[ 1 + \left(\frac{dy}{dx}\right)^2 = y^2 \] Thus, \[ \left(\frac{dy}{dx}\right)^2 = y^2 - 1 \] ### Step 4: Taking the square root Taking the square root of both sides, we have: \[ \frac{dy}{dx} = \pm \sqrt{y^2 - 1} \] Since the curve has a negative slope, we choose the negative root: \[ \frac{dy}{dx} = -\sqrt{y^2 - 1} \] ### Step 5: Change of variables To solve this differential equation, we can use the substitution \( y = \sin(\theta) \). Then, we have: \[ \frac{dy}{dx} = \cos(\theta) \frac{d\theta}{dx} \] Substituting this into our equation gives: \[ \cos(\theta) \frac{d\theta}{dx} = -\sqrt{\sin^2(\theta) - 1} \] Since \( \sin^2(\theta) - 1 = -\cos^2(\theta) \), we can rewrite this as: \[ \cos(\theta) \frac{d\theta}{dx} = -\cos(\theta) \] Dividing both sides by \( \cos(\theta) \) (assuming \( \cos(\theta) \neq 0 \)): \[ \frac{d\theta}{dx} = -1 \] ### Step 6: Integrate Integrating both sides gives: \[ \theta = -x + C \] ### Step 7: Express \( y \) in terms of \( x \) From our substitution \( y = \sin(\theta) \), we have: \[ y = \sin(-x + C) \] ### Step 8: Determine the constant \( C \) Since the curve passes through the point \( (0, 1) \): \[ 1 = \sin(-0 + C) \implies C = \frac{\pi}{2} \] Thus, we have: \[ y = \sin\left(-x + \frac{\pi}{2}\right) = \cos(x) \] ### Step 9: Parametric form of the curve The parametric equations for the curve can be expressed as: \[ x = t, \quad y = \cos(t) \] ### Final Answer The curve in parametric form is: \[ \begin{cases} x = t \\ y = \cos(t) \end{cases} \]

To find the curve \( C \) in parametric form, we start with the given conditions and derive the necessary equations step by step. ### Step 1: Understand the problem We know that the curve \( C \) passes through the point \( (0, 1) \) and has a negative slope. The tangent at any point \( P \) on the curve meets the x-axis at point \( Q \) such that the length \( PQ = 1 \). ### Step 2: Use the formula for the length of the tangent The length of the tangent from a point \( P(x, y) \) on the curve to the x-axis can be expressed using the formula: \[ ...
