Mathematics (Tertiary/Grade 11-12)—Pending OP [Polar] Can someone help me with the proof please!
Second slide was part A, and shows the diagram we are working with.
Workings show above for where I have gotten to
I’m aware arctan(dy/dx) = Angle
So Angle = Theta + B
However, I’m confused as to which angle this is giving me and why.
I thought it was giving angle QTO, however according to the mark scheme it appears to give STP.
Can someone please point me in the right direction as to why it’s working out STP ?????
