I used implitplot to plot solutions to some (tricky) equations in 2 variables, of the form implicitplot([f(x,y)=0]).  Now I have a (tricky) change of parameterization G:R^2->R^2 of the form G(x,y)=(g(x,y),h(x,y)). I'd like to plot the image of the solution set of f(x,y)=0 under the map G. Of course, if I could invert G I'd implicitplot           G^(-1)(f(x,y))=0, but the functions I have dont lend themselves to this.

 

Presumably MAPLE stores the points it plots somewhere, and I should be able to apply G to this set of points. But I don't know how to approach this. Anybody know?
