What is the equation of a parabolic curve.

Thanks

Amit
 
x=A*t

y=(x*t)^2



Where A = max X value



For example, if you want your parabolic curve to run from 0 to 4 on the x-coordinate, then the equation would be:



x=4*t

y=(x*t)^2
 
the equation of a parabolic curve in cartesian is

x = a * t * t

y = 2 * a * t



where a is a constant

i have tried and got it.
