Hyperbola Show that the polar equation for

Chapter 10, Problem 52

(choose chapter or problem)

Show that the polar equation for  \(\frac{x^{2}}{a^{2}}-\frac{y^{2}}{b^{2}}=1\)  is

\(r^{2}=\frac{-b^{2}}{1-e^{2} \cos ^{2} \theta}\).                                    Hyperbola

Text Transcription:

x^2 / a^2 - y^2 / b^2 = 1

r^2 = -b^2 / 1 - e^2 cos^2 theta
