Step 1
Elimination. Previously, we learned that the parametric equation x=cos8t and y=sin8t lie on a circle on the xy-plane in R2. In R3, these parametric equations lie on a cylinder pointing to the z-axis. Only IV and VI fits this criterion as they are circular and the circles are oriented along the xy-plane. We have answered VI earlier so this must be IV. Lets

Step 1 
Since x(t)=cos8t and y(t)=sin8t we know that the cylinder is where the curve is x2+y2=1 (this is because x2+y2=1 implies that the projection of the curve on the xy plane is the unit circle). 
From z=e0.8t we see that z will increase exponentially as t increases, The sole graph with these characteristics is
