Answer:

Hyperbola  

Step-by-step explanation:

The polar equation of a conic section with directrix ± d  has the standard form:

r=ed/(1 ± ecosθ)

where e = the eccentricity.

The eccentricity determines the type of conic section:

e = 0       ⇒ circle

0 < e < 1  ⇒ ellipse

e = 1        ⇒ parabola

e > 1        ⇒ hyperbola

Step 1. <em>Convert the equation to standard form </em>

r = 4/(2 – 4 cosθ)

Divide numerator and denominator by 2

r = 2/(1 - 2cosθ)

Step 2. <em>Identify the conic </em>

e = 2, so the conic is a hyperbola.

The polar plot of the function (below) confirms that the conic is a hyperbola.
