The curve with parametric equations ...

The curve with parametric equations
`x=1 +4cos theta , y= 2 +3 sin theta .` is

A

an ellipse

B

a parabola

C

a hyperbola

D

a circle

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B

We have ,
`x=1 +4 cos theta , y =2+3 sin theta `
` therefore ((x-1)/(4))^(2)+((y-2)/(3))^(2)=1implies ((x-1)^(2))/(16)+((y-2)^(2))/(9) =1`
Clearly , which is an ellipse .
