Question

Cartesian equation for the polar equation r sin θ = 6?

Answer 1

Make sure these two equations are somewhere in your notes or on flashcards

\[\Large x = r*\cos(\theta)\]
\[\Large y = r*\sin(\theta)\]

they are very useful for converting from polar to cartesian form

Answer 2

so y=6? @jim_thompson5910

Answer 3

I also got y =6 when I converted as well, but...it's been a while since I've done this

Answer 4

yep, this polar equation is a horizontal line through y = 6

Answer 5

ah yea...
