Answer:
Your answer is dilation.
Step-by-step explanation:
A dilation either shrinks or makes the shape bigger. It changes the size.
Answer:
Choice B
Step-by-step explanation:
The first step is to write the polar equation of the conic section in standard form by dividing the numerator and denominator by 6;
The eccentricity of this conic section is thus 2/3, the coefficient of cos theta. Clearly, the eccentricity is between o and 1 implying that this conic section represents an Ellipse.
Lastly, the ellipse will open towards the left since we have positive cos theta in the denominator. The only graph that meets the conditions is graph B.
Answer:
2 cis (7/6 pi)
Step-by-step explanation:
r = sqrt( a^2 + b^2)
r = sqrt (-sqrt(3) )^2 + (-1)^2)
= sqrt(3 +1)
= sqrt(4)
= 2
theta = arctan (b/a)
theta = arctan (-1/-sqrt(3))
theta = 30
but this is in the third quardrant -a and -b
so add 180
theta = 210 degrees
convert this to radians
210 * pi/180 = 210/180 * pi = 21/18 * pi = 7/6 * pi
r cis (theta)
2 cis (7/6 pi)
That's a quadratic, a nice parabola in vertex form.
The parabola has a positive x^2 term, so it's a CUP, concave up positive. It will have a minimum at the vertex, which is (2,5). Plot that point.
Now we need a couple of guide points to draw the usual parabola going up from both sides of its vertex. We try x=0 giving (0,9) and see that x=4 also gives 9, (4,9). Plot the parabola through those two points and the vertex and you're done.
