Solution

The correct option is B An ellipse

Given:
dxdt=8πsin2πt (i)
dydt=5πcos2πt (ii)
From equation (i) we get,
dx=8πsin2πtdt
x8dx=8πtosin2πtdt
x8=8π.[cos2πt2π]t0
x=84(cos2πtcos0)
x=124cos2πt (iii)
From equation (ii) we get,
y0dy=5πtocos2πtdt
y=[5πsin2πt2π]t0
y=52sin2πt (iv)
Hence,
from (iii) cos2πt=12x4
from (iv) sin2πt=2y5
Therefore, Squaring and adding, equation of ellipse is obtained.
