Question

Identify the curve by transforming the given polar equation to rectangular coordinates.

Answer 1

\(x = r \cos \theta \)
\(y = r \sin \theta \)

Answer 2

yes...i am aware of those equations

Answer 3

simply replace \(r \sin \theta\) by \(y\), you're done ?

Answer 4

it says to identify the curve as well but I'm not sure how you are able to figure that out!

Answer 5

\(r \sin \theta = 4\)

\(\implies y = 4\)

the curve is a horizontal line

Answer 6

thats so right. So it is basically saying rsin (theta) = 4
& "rsin(theta)" =y
so y= 4?!

Answer 7

Yep !

Answer 8

thank you :)
