How do you convert -y+2=(3x+4)^2+(y-1)^2y+2=(3x+4)2+(y1)2 into polar form?

1 Answer

Given that -y+2=(3x+4)^2+(y-1)^2y+2=(3x+4)2+(y1)2

Substituting x=r\cos\thetax=rcosθ & y=r\sin\thetay=rsinθ

-r\sin\theta+2=(3r\cos\theta+4)^2+(r\sin\theta-1)^2rsinθ+2=(3rcosθ+4)2+(rsinθ1)2

-r\sin\theta+2=9r^2\cos^2\theta+16+24r\cos\theta+r^2\sin^2\theta+1-2r\sin\thetarsinθ+2=9r2cos2θ+16+24rcosθ+r2sin2θ+12rsinθ

(8\cos^2\theta+1)r^2+(24\cos\theta-\sin\theta)r+15=0(8cos2θ+1)r2+(24cosθsinθ)r+15=0
