I have the solution to a problem and I need help understanding how the solution was obtained.
I have to take an equation of an ellipse and transfer it to parametric form.
The ellipse has the equation: (x+1)^2 + 4y^2 = 4.
The solution has the ellipse parameterized as follows:
x+1 = 2cost and y = sint
Can someone just explain this translation, step by step?
