Homework Statement

Elimnate the parameter to find a rectangular equation of the curve. x=sin t, y= csc t

Homework Equations

I believe trignometric identities are relevant to this problem. cscx=1/sinx

The Attempt at a Solution

csc x =1/ sin x
thus
y=1/x
Is this the answer? any help is appreciated thank you.

By "rectangular" you are being asked to find the equation in terms of Cartesian coordinates, which in this case, are x and y. So, y=1/x is correct.
