Question

Convert this equation to polar form3x-y+2=0

Answer 1

The equation is given as,

`3x-y+2=0`

For the polar form,

`\begin{gathered} x\text{ = rcos}\theta \\ y\text{ = rsin}\theta \end{gathered}`

Modifying the given equation,

`3rcos\theta+2rsin\theta-5=0`

Taking r common,

`r(3cos\theta+2sin\theta)-5=0`

Transposing 5 to R.H.S,
