Parametric Equations

This RISP activity is in the form of a puzzle in which students are given a general parametric equation with missing coefficients. A number of clues are given such as a point through which the curve passes. Students have to use their understanding of parametric equations to find the missing numbers. There are a variety of different cases including finding the value of the differential dy/dx
