I have a line defined as:
$ax + by + c=0$
and a parabola in parametric form, ie: $x = x(t), y = y(t)$, where $x(t)$ and $y(t)$ are quadratic.
To find their intersection(s), I solve the system:
$a\cdot x(t) + b\cdot y(t) + c = 0 $
That's straight forward enough, but what if I first need to rotate the parabola by some $\theta$? I'm having trouble getting that into parametric form, ie $x = x_\theta(t), y = y_\theta(t)$.
The context is an application that needs to predict collisions of rolling balls (the parabolic motion part) with static linear shapes (eg: edges of a bounding rectangle).
It is just a rotation in the plane. $X(t)=Uz$, $z=(x(t),y(t))$; $U$ is the rotation matrix.
