Abstract

By using parametrics we can graph any function or relationship represented in two dimensions, and we have the ability to add a third variable, t. This is especially helpful in situations where we want to simulate motion. The TI calculator has a built-in parametric graphing utility, and demonstrating how it can be effectively used is best learned from a teacher using TI SmartView. Come learn more about parametrics and about the multitude of time-saving features that are available to a teacher who uses TI SmartView.
