The following parametric equations define an ellipse.
x=2cos(\theta ),y=3sin(\theta ),0<=\theta <=2\pi Use the formula for the area enclosed by a parameteric curve to compute the area enclosed by this ellipse. Answer: (Notice the integrand will involve a trig function squared; recall the techniques from Calculus II to deal with this type of integral.)
