Answer

$x^{2}-y^{2}=1, \quad x\geq 1,\qquad y\geq 0$ .

Work Step by Step

From the parametric equations, we find constrictions on x and y $x\geq 1,\qquad y\geq 0$ Square both equations :$\left\{\begin{array}{l} x^{2}=t+1\\ y^{2}=t \end{array}\right.$ Substitute: $x^{2}=y^{2}+1, \quad x\geq 1,\qquad y\geq 0$ $x^{2}-y^{2}=1, \quad x\geq 1,\qquad y\geq 0$ This is the upper right wing of a hyperbola. To graph, create a function value table using values for t, in ascending order of t, calculating the x- and y-coordinates of points on the graph. Plot and join the points obtained with a smooth curve, noting the direction in which t increases.
