单词 Parametre
释义

parametre


Parametre means often a quantity which is considered as constant in a certain situation but which may take different values in other situations; so the parametre is a “variable constant”.  But in giving a curve or a surface in parametric form, the parametres work as proper variables which determine the values of the coordinatesMathworldPlanetmathPlanetmath of the points; then we can describe the parametres as “auxiliary variables”.

The parametric

of the origin-centered circle of parametres:  a (the radius) is a variable constant which is held constant all the time when one considers one circle;  t is an auxiliary variable which has to get all real values (e.g. from the intervalMathworldPlanetmath[0, 2π])  for obtaining all points of the perimetre.

In the analytic geometryMathworldPlanetmath, one speaks of the parametre of parabolaPlanetmathPlanetmath (a.k.a. latus rectum):  it means the chord of the parabola which is perpendicularMathworldPlanetmathPlanetmathPlanetmath to the axis and goes through the focus; it is the quantity 2p in the standard equation   x2=2py  of the parabola (p is the distance of the focus and the directrix).
