Chapter 9: Q. 61 (page 584)

graph each pair of polar equations on the same polar grid. Find the polar coordinates of the point(s) of the intersection and label the point(s) on the graph.
$r = 8 \cos θ r = 2 s e c θ$

Short Answer

Expert verified

The polar coordinates of the points of intersection of $r = 8 \cos θ & r = 2 s e c θ$ are $(4, \frac{π}{3}) & (4, \frac{π}{3})$ and the graph is

Step by step solution

Step 1. Given Information

The given equations are

$r = 8 \cos θ r = 2 s e c θ$

Step 2. Graph of equation

Plot the graph of equations $r = 8 \cos θ & r = 2 s e c θ$ on the same polar grid

The graph state that the coordinates of the points of intersection are $(4, \frac{π}{3}) & (4, \frac{- π}{3})$
