The conic represented by the following polar equation and graph it by using the graphing utility:
Answer to Problem 91E
Given function
Explanation of Solution
Given information:
Formula used:
The
Parabola if
Ellipse if
Hyperbola if
The given polar equation is:
Compared it with the standard equation of the polar form of a conic
Get that:
So, here the eccentricity is equal to one
Graph for the given function is:
From graph, it confirms that the graph represents a ellipse. Thus the result verified successfully.
