In other words, it can be said that for a circle centred at the origin, x2 + y2 = r2 is the equation with y = r sin θ and x = r cos θ as its solution. Here, θ is the parameter. For example, if a circle centred at the origin has its radius of 10 cm, the solution o...
Then you can plug this expression in the other parametric equation and many times a (Pythagorean) Trigonometric Identity can be used to simplify. In these cases, we sometimes get equations for a circle, ellipse, or hyperbola (found in the Conics section). But if we don’t have the trig ...

An arbitrary conic curve can be defined by an implicit equation and the curves defined implicitly are generally rendered by the Bresenham-Pitteway midpoint algorithm. However these algorithms can fail when conic curves degenerate such as when an ellipse becomes very thin. Alternatively, conic curves...
