Step 1
Since
r(t)=ξ+yi+zk
a) r(t)=(3cost+1)i+(5sint+2)j+4k
Parametric equations,
x=3cost+1
y=5sint+2

z=4
Then,
cost=1x3
sint=y25
And
cos2t+sin2t=1
(1x3)2+(y25)2=1
(y25)2=112x+x29
(y25)2=8+2xx29
y=538+2xx2+2
b) r(t)=4i+(3cost+1)j+(5sint+2)k
Parametric equations,
x=4
y=3cost+1
z=5sint+2
Hence,
cost=1y3
sint=z25
And
cos2t+sin2t=1
(1y3)2+(z25)2=1
(1y3)2=144z+z225
(1y3)2=25+4zz225
y=13521+4zz
