r2=sin θ

The required equation is x2+y232=y.

See the step by step solution

Step by Step Solution

Step 1. Given information.

The given equation in polar coordinates is:

r2=sin θ

Step 2. Find the equation in rectangular coordinates.

r2=sinθ

First, multiply both sides by r,

r·r2=r sinθr3=y r sinθ=yx2+y23=y r2=x2+y2 and r=x2+y2x2+y232=y

Therefore, the equation in rectangular coordinates is x2+y232=y.
