`x=sqrt(t)` ----------------(1)
`y=t-5` -----------------(2)
Draw a table for different values of t and plot the points obtained from the table.(Refer the attached image). Connect the points to a smooth curve.
From equation (1),
`t=x^2`
Substitute t in equation (2),
`y=x^2-5` ,`x>=0`
Rectangular equation of the curve is `y=x^2-5 , x>=0`
