r=10cos(t) in cylindrical coordinates |
2013-05-18 |
|
From r.m: question from calculus exam: what is the figure obtained having eqn.r=10cos(t) in cylinderical coordinates?
i know it is a cylinder with center (5,0) ,but can't the equation represent two cylinders ,one with center
(5,0) and the other with center (-5,0).
thanks for any help. Answered by Penny Nom. |

From kumi: 2.Sketch the graph of r=(2)/(1-sinθ). Make sure you show a complete chart demonstrating how you arrive at your sketch, and sketch the graph neatly and clearly with proper labeling.
b. change the equation above to cartesian coordinates and identify the type of graph.
c.explain which coordinate system gives an easier function to graph and why
d.find a function of the form r=f(θ) for a circle centered at (8,π/2) and with the point (0,0) lying on the circle Answered by Penny Nom. |
