  1. A \(\mathrm{x}^3=\mathrm{y}^2(2 a+\mathrm{x})\)
  2. B \(x^2=y^2(2 a+x)\)
  3. C \(x^3=y^2(2 a-x)\)
  4. D \(x^3=y^2(a+x)\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(C) \(x^3=y^2(2 a-x)\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(\begin{aligned} & \text { Hint: } \quad \mathrm{r} \cos \theta=2 \mathrm{a}^2 \sin ^2 \theta \\ & \Rightarrow \quad \mathrm{x}\left(\mathrm{x}^2+\mathrm{y}^2\right)=2 \mathrm{ay}^2 \\ & \Rightarrow \quad \mathrm{x}^3=\mathrm{y}^2(2 \mathrm{a}-\mathrm{x})\end{aligned}\)
