![Check Mark](/static/check-mark.png)
Answer to Problem 56RE
The conic is hyperbolawith transverse axis perpendicular to directrix.
Explanation of Solution
Given:
Concept used:
For a conic with eccentricity e
If
If
If
For a conic with focus at origin and Directrix is
Then Polar equation of the conic is
For a conic with focus at origin and Directrix is
Then Polar equation of the conic is
Calculation:
Comparing this with polar equation:
Here
If
So, the conic isellipse with the major axis perpendicular to directrix.
The directrix is perpendicular to polar axis at a distance 1 units right of the pole.
The graph of the polar equation
Hence, theconic is hyperbolawith transverse axis perpendicular to directrix.
