Explanation of Solution
Given information:
Characteristics ofhyperbola are eccentricity is
Formula used:
When polar equations are either of the form
When
When
When
Also, for the conic
Calculation:
Consider the hyperbola whose eccentricity is
It is provided that equation of directrix is
Recall that for the conic
Also it is provided that eccentricity is
Substitute
