1 Polar Equations of Conics

2 Directrix is perpendicular to the polar axis at a distance p units to the left of the pole Directrix is perpendicular to the polar axis at a distance p units to the right of the pole Directrix is parallel to the polar axis at a distance p units above the pole Directrix is parallel to the polar axis at a distance p units below the pole

3 Polar Equations of Conics Eccentricity If e = 1, the conic is a parabola; the axis of symmetry is perpendicular to the directrix If e < 1, the conic is an ellipse; the major axis is perpendicular to the directrix If e > 1, the conic is a hyperbola; the transverse axis is perpendicular to the directrix
