Step 1: Given,
An ellipse in the plane x=2 satisfying the equation y29+z216=1. We have to find a function r(t) that describes the above curve.
Step 2: Calculation
The parametric equations of an ellipse x2a2+y2b2=1 are x=acost, y=bsint.
Hence the parametric equations for y29+z216=1 are y=3cost and z=4sint.
Therefore the vector function for the given curve is
over{r}(t)=2i^+3costj^+4sintk^
