Question

Eliminate θ from the following :

x = 4cosθ − 5sinθ, y = 4sinθ + 5cosθ

Sum

Solution

x = 4cosθ − 5sinθ   ...(i)

y = 4sinθ + 5cosθ  ...(ii)

Squaring (i) and (ii) and adding, we get

x2 + y2 = (4cos θ – 5sin θ)2 + (4sin θ + 5cos θ)2

= 16 cos2θ – 40sinθ cosθ + 25 sin2θ + 16 sin2θ + 40sinθ cosθ + 25 cos2θ

= 16(sin2θ + cos2θ) + 25(sin2θ + cos2θ)

= 16(1) + 25(1)

= 41
