Cat 1 and 2 Unit Code: Bma 1205 Unit Title: Analytical Geometry

i) The document provides 6 multi-part questions regarding analytical geometry. Questions involve finding equations of lines and curves, intersections of lines, angles between lines, coordinates of points on lines and curves, and converting between Cartesian and polar coordinates. ii) Questions a) through f) cover finding equations of lines passing through points, intersections of lines, angles between lines, dividing a line segment externally, equations of ellipses and parabolas given properties, and properties of hyperbolas such as center and vertices. iii) The final question asks to convert the Cartesian coordinates (-3, -7) to polar coordinates.
