TI-83 Plus Parametric Graphing 158
Defining and Displaying Parametric Graphs
TI-83 Plus Graphing Mode Similarities
The steps for defining a parametric graph are similar to the steps for
defining a function graph. Chapter 4 assumes that you are familiar with
Chapter 3: Function Graphing. Chapter 4 details aspects of parametric
graphing that differ from function graphing.
Setting Parametric Graphing Mode
To display the mode screen, press z. To graph parametric equations,
you must select Par graphing mode before you enter window variables
and before you enter the components of parametric equations.
Displaying the Parametric Y= Editor
After selecting Par graphing mode, press o to display the parametric Y=
editor.
