QUESTION:

Use the results of Exercises 66-67 to describe and graph the following circles.

\(r^2+2r(\cos \theta-3 \sin \theta)=4\)

ANSWER:

Solution 72E

Step 1:

In this problem;

We have to describe and graph of the  circle

We know that the polar equation represents  a circle of radius ‘R’ centered at ( a, b).

Consider ,

                       

                     

By , using the above result  represents a circle.

So , here  a =  -1, b = 3 , and  = 4

                                             = 4

                                            = 4

                                            = 4

                                      + 4 = 14

                                      .

Therefore ,  

  represents a circle of radius ‘’ centered at ( -1, 3).
