Eliminate θ, if
x=3cosecθ+4cotθ,
y=4cosecθ3cotθ.

Open in App
Solution

Given that x=3cosecθ+4cotθ and y=4cosecθ3cotθ
Multiply equation 1 by 3 and equation 2 by 4 and add both
We get cosecθ=3x+4y25
Now multiply equation 1 by 4 and equation 2 by 3 and subtract both
We get cotθ=4x3y25
we know that cosec2θcot2θ=1
(3x+4y)2(4x3y)2=625
