 Question 375015: Hi Totally Bewildered, Please Help? The path of a point is given parametrically by x = a cos t, y = b sin t. Show that the point travels around the ellipse x^2/a^2 +y^2/b^2 = 1 Express dy=dx in terms of t. Suppose that t represents time. Express the speed as a function of t. ii) A closed hollow vessel is in the form of a right-circular cone, together with its base, and is made of sheet metal of negligible thickness. Express the total surface area S in terms of the volume V and the semi-vertical angle 'theta' of the cone. Show that for a given volume, the total area of the surface is a minimum if sin 'theta' = 1/3 . With this value of 'theta', find the value of S if V = 8/3'pie' a^3 where a is a constant.
