Expert Solution
Step 1

Given:

Given that  r=asin2θ , where a is arbitrary constant 

we want to find orthogonal trajectories of r=asin2θ 

Step 2

Solution:

Given equation  r=asin2θ , where a is arbitrary constant

Differentiating given equation with respect to θ gives

r'=2asinθcosθ   ..............*

Now ,r=asin2θa=rsin2θ

Therefore substituting a=rsin2θ in * we get

r'=2rsin2θsinθcosθ=2rcosθsinθr'=2rcotθ

Now replace r' with -1r' to write the differential equation of the orthogonal curve

 -1r'=2rcotθ r'=-12rcotθ r'=-tanθ2r

Now we can integrate this differential equation

r'=-tanθ2r drdθ=-tanθ2r 2rdr=-tanθdθ 2rdr=-tanθdθ 2r22=lncosθ+lnC 

 r2=lncosθ+lnC r2=lnCcosθ Ccosθ=expr2cosθ=±1Cexpr2

by denoting C1=±1C we obtain the final implicit equation of the orthogonal trajectories

cosθ=±C1expr2
