Analyze each equation and graph it.

r=84+3sin(θ)

Short Answer

Expert verified

Analyzation:

e=34,p=83

This is an ellipse equation.

The directrix equation is y=83

One focus is at the pole, and the directrix is parallel to the polar axis, a distance of 83units to the above pole.

Vertices of the ellipse are (87,Ï€2),(8,3Ï€2).

Center of ellipse is (0,-247)

a=3,b=243

The graph is

Step by step solution

01

Step 1. Given information

The polar equation is

r=84+3sin(θ)

02

Step 2. Finding e and p

The polar equation is

r=84+3sin(θ)

Divide both sides by 4

r=8444+34sin(θ)r=21+34sin(θ)

Compare with the standard polar equation

r=ep1+esin(θ)

So,

ep=2e=3434×p=2p=2×43p=83

03

Step 3. Analyzing  the conic equation

Identification of equation:

We have got

e=34<1

So, this is an ellipse equation.

Finding Directrix:

Apply the directrix formula: y=p

Plug p=83

So, the directrix equation is y=83

One focus is at the pole, and the directrix is parallel to the polar axis, a distance of 83units to the above pole.

To find the vertices, we let θ=0,θ=πand find r

r=84+3sin(π2)=84+3×1r=84+3=87r=84+3sin(3π2)=84+3×-1r=84-3=8

So, vertices are (87,Ï€2),(8,3Ï€2)

Rectangular forms of vertices are (0,87),(0,-8)

Now, we can find a midpoint to get center

So, the center is (0,-247)

Now, we can find a and b

a is the distance from center to vertex

So, a=3

Now, we can find b

b=327

04

Step 4. Sketching the graph

Locate vertices (87,Ï€2),(8,3Ï€2),

draw directrix y=83

Locate center (0,-247)

Locate distances from the center to verticesa=3,b=247

So, the graph is
