pacheco (jnp926) – Homework 8 – staron – (52840) 7 6. Explanation: As is sometimes the case with polar curves, it is more convenient to use the relations x = r cos θ , y = r sin θ , to convert the polar form to Cartesian form. For then r = 2 csc θ = 2 sin θ becomes y = 2 in Cartesian form. Thus the graph of r = 2 sec θ is the horizontal line keywords: polar graph, polar curve, convert to Cartesian form, line, circle, 013 10.0points 1. r = 2 cos θ 2. r = 2 sec θ 3. r = 2 sin θ 4. θ = 2 5. r = 2 csc θ 6. r = 2 correct Explanation: When the graph of a polar function cannot be determined directly, it is sometimes more convenient to use the relations x = r cos θ , y = r sin θ , to convert the polar form to Cartesian form and then use standard knowledge of Cartesian graphs. This is often the case with special lines and circles, so let’s look at the six polar functions listed above. 1.
