Q. 23 - Calculus

Question

Graph the equation in the θr-plane. Label each arc of your curve with the quadrant in which the corresponding polar graph will occur.    

$r=sec\theta$

Step-by-Step Solution

Answer

The graph of the equation:

Step 1. Given information:

The equation of the curve:  

$r=sec\theta$

Step 2. Graph the equation in θr-plane.

The value of $\theta$ lies on the horizontal axis and $r$lies on the vertical axis.

The graph of $r=sec\theta$ is:
