Answer

\(a)\) Graphed below \(b)\) \(\vec{r}'(t)=4\cos t \vec{i} +2\sin t \vec{j}\) \(c)\) Graphed below

Work Step by Step

\(a)\) Graph. \(b)\) \(\vec{r}(t)=\langle 4 \sin t, - 2 \cos t \rangle\) finding the derivative on both sides we have: \[ \vec{r}'(t)=\langle 4 \cos t, 2 \sin t \rangle \] \(c)\) At \(t=3\pi/4\) we have: \[ \vec{r}(3\pi/4)=\langle 2\sqrt{2},\sqrt{2}\rangle \] \[ \vec{r}'(3\pi/4)= \langle-2\sqrt{2}, \sqrt{2} \rangle \]
