Use parametric differentiation to do it first calculate dy/d(theta) =bcos() now dx/d(theta)=-asin() now y`=-bcos/asin and then dy`/d(theta)= -b/a×(-sin^2-cos^2)/sin^2=bcosec^2/a now d^2y/dx^2=(bcosec^2/a)-asin=-b/a^2 cosec^3

Dear student
 
dx /d@ = - a sec @
 
dy/d@ = b cos @
Now
 
dy/dx = - b/a cot @
 
Hence
 
d²y/dx² = -b/a cosec²@ * d@/dx
 
Now I think you can solve.
