An ellipse with the equation [((x-1)^2)/9]+[(y^2)/8]=1 Show that the given ellipse in polar co-ordinates has the form a+rcosTheta = br additionally determine the values of a and b
I do not know how to change this equation: 16= 16x^2+y^2 into a standard ellipse equation
We know lengths of the two axis, and we know the angle of the line. We can figure out the foci, but I can't see what to do with that information. Hope you can help. Regards.
