Question 859996: A pair of parametric equations is given.
a) Sketch the curve represented by the parametric equations
b) Find the rectangular coordinate equation for the curve by eliminating the parameter.
x= sin^2t
y= sin^4t
The sin^4 is really throwing me off. I need help with the whole equation, but the sin^4t isn't really making much sense.

sin^4 = (sin^2)^2
