ParametricPlot
ParametricPlot[
,
,
t
,
tmin
,
tmax
] produces a parametric plot with  and  coordinates  and  generated as a function of t.
ParametricPlot[
,
,
,
, ... 
,
t
,
tmin
,
tmax
] plots several parametric curves.
ParametricPlot evaluates its arguments in a non-standard way (see Section A.4.2). You should use Evaluate to evaluate the function to be plotted if this can safely be done before specific numerical values are supplied.
The options that can be given for ParametricPlot are the same as for Plot.
ParametricPlot has the default option setting Axes
->
True.
ParametricPlot returns a Graphics object.
See the Mathematica book: Section 1.9.10.
