Equation for simple parametric curve
I want to find the parametric equation for the 5 vertices curve below. It consists of an ellipse with a rotating axes. I get stuck after this:
x = a cos ( t ) cos ( θ ) b sin ( t ) sin ( θ )
y = a cos ( t ) sin ( θ ) + b sin ( t ) cos ( θ ) with θ = f u n c t i o n ( t )?

Explanation:
x ( t ) = 6 cos ( t π 2 ) cos ( t 5 ) sin ( t π 2 ) sin ( t 5 )
y ( t ) = 6 cos ( t π 2 ) sin ( t 5 ) + sin ( t π 2 ) cos ( t 5 )
with 0 < t < 5 π.
