Question

Convert r=53sinθ−cosθ to rectangular form.

Answer 1

Answer:

$y = \frac{1}{3} x + \frac{5}{3}$

Step-by-step explanation:

r = 5/(3sinθ-cosθ)

multiply both sides by (3sinθ-cosθ):

r(3sinθ-cosθ) = 5

expand:

3rsinθ-rcosθ = 5

replace rsinθ with y and rcosθ with x:

3y-x = 5

add x to both sides:

3y = x + 5

divide both sides by 3:

y = 1/3x + 5/3
