Step 1 Given Parametric equations and a value for the parameter t $x=\left(60\mathrm{cos}{30}^{\circ }\right)t,y=5+\left(60\mathrm{sin}{30}^{\circ }\right)t-16{t}^{2}$ and $t=2$ We have to find the coordinates of the point on the plane curve described by the parametric equations corresponding to the given value of t. Step 2 Given parametric equation $x=\left(60\mathrm{cos}{30}^{\circ }\right)t,y=5+\left(60\mathrm{sin}{30}^{\circ }\right)t-16{t}^{2}$ As cos So, $x=\left(30\sqrt{3}\right)t,y=5+30t-16{t}^{2}$ (1) Now we have to find the coordinates of the point on the plane curve corresponding to the value $t=2$. On plugging in So, $\left(60\sqrt{3},1\right)$ is the point.
