Shifts in time
"Cheating" with periodic functions
Example: A usual quarter-circle
Same quarter-circle paramterized with a different interval
The full 3D-view in xyt-space
The side views xt and yt projections - exhibiting the trick
The xt-view alone
The yt-view alone
Arbitrary shifting in (time) t
An arbitray, true shift (xy-view)
The full 3D-view in xyt-space
The xt-view alone
The yt-view alone
Scaling time -- changing the speed
Covering a circle in unit time
The full 3D-view in xyt-space
The xt-view
The yt=view
Any line segment in unit time
The usual paramterization
Automating this paramterization
Any curve in any time given time-interval
An example
Using a specified time interval, the data given
Look at the data and make a plan!
Some college algebra, finding the equation of a line through two given points
