why we are using only (acostheta,bsintheta) as parametric for ellipse why not (asintheta,bcostheta)

Question

Arun · Answer

Dear student Yes you can use (a sin theta, b cos theta) also but you have to prove all formulae according to this and nothing wring in this. Generally in books and author take (a costheta, b sin theta) hence they have solved all formulae accordingly
