3 part?
for part I what do you get when you multiply both sides by r?
r = -6sin(theta) you just need to multiply the left side by r and the right side by r
wait so -6 *sin(theta)
you are given r = -6sin(theta) the directions say to multiply both sides by r so what do you get after that?
would it just be -6sin(theta)* -6sin(theta)
just the letter r, not -6sin(theta)
-6sin(theta)*r
?
good what about the left side?
oh r^2=-6sin(theta)*r
good using the fact that r^2 = x^2 + y^2 and the fact that rsin(theta) = y, convert the equation to x and y form
you have r^2 = -6rsin(theta) you can replace "r^2" with "x^2+y^2" you can also replace "rsin(theta)" with y
so basically x^2+y^2=y
almost, don't forget about that -6 x^2 + y^2 = -6y now for part II complete the square on the y terms
not sure where that ^3 came from x^2 + (y+3)^2 = 9 is your equation now for part III what shape is the graph of this equation?
circle
good so that's it
