Find a rectangular form of the equation r=5sinx. Thank you for your help!
-------
Conversion equations:
r = sqrt(x^2+y^2)
theta = arctan(y/x)
----------------------------
Your Problem: r = 5*sin(theta)
-------
sqrt(x^2+y^2) = sin(arctan(y/x))
-----
Note: sin(arctan(y/x) = y/sqrt(x^2+y^2)
=====
So, sqrt(x^2+y^2) = y/sqrt(x^2+y^2)
--------------------------
x^2 + y^2 = y
Cheers,
