Answer:

x = 6

Explanation:

Compare the given formula to the equations shown in the attachment. First of all, you see that all of the numbers are scaled by a factor of 4. Removing that gives ...


r=(6.6)/(1+1.1cos(\theta))=(1.1\cdot6)/(1+1.1cos(\theta))

This matches the formula for the hyperbola with e=1.1 and d=6, for a directrix of x = 6.
