Chapter 9: Q. 82 (page 568)

The letters r and $胃$ represent polar coordinates. Write each equation using rectangular coordinates $(x, y)$ .
role="math" localid="1646747340400" $r = \frac{3}{3 - \cos 胃}$

Short Answer

Expert verified

The equation is written using rectangular coordinates as $8 x^{2} + 9 y^{2} - 6 x - 9 = 0$ .

Step by step solution

Step 1. Given Information

We are given an equation $r = \frac{3}{3 - \cos 胃}$ .

We need to write the equation using rectangular coordinates.

Step 2. Concept Used

If P is a point with polar coordinates $(r, 胃)$ , the rectangular coordinates $(x, y)$ of P are given by

$x = r \cos 胃 y = r \sin 胃$

And it implies that $x^{2} + y^{2} = r^{2}$ .

Step 3. Convert into rectangular coordinates

In the given equation $r = \frac{3}{3 - \cos 胃}$ , we multiply both sides by $3 - \cos 胃$ and we get

$r (3 - \cos 胃) = \frac{3}{3 - \cos 胃} (3 - \cos 胃) 3 r - r \cos 胃 = 3$

Now using the relations we substitute $\sqrt{x^{2} + y^{2}}$ for $r$ and $x$ for $r \cos 胃$ and we get

$3 \sqrt{x^{2} + y^{2}} - x = 3$

Step 4. Simplify the equation

In the equation first, add $x$ both sides, then square both sides and simplify.

$\begin{array}{rcl} 3 \sqrt{x^{2} + y^{2}} - x + x & = & 3 + x \\ 3 \sqrt{x^{2} + y^{2}} & = & x + 3 \\ {(3 \sqrt{x^{2} + y^{2}})}^{2} & = & {(x + 3)}^{2} \\ 9 (x^{2} + y^{2}) & = & x^{2} + 6 x + 9 \\ 9 x^{2} + 9 y^{2} & = & x^{2} + 6 x + 9 \end{array}$

Bringing all the terms on the left hand side we get

$\begin{array}{rcl} 9 x^{2} + 9 y^{2} - x^{2} - 6 x - 9 & = & 0 \\ 8 x^{2} + 9 y^{2} - 6 x - 9 & = & 0 \end{array}$
