Step 1: Recall the relationship between Cartesian coordinates (x, y) and polar coordinates (r, θ). In polar coordinates, x = r * cos(θ) and y = r * sin(θ). Substitute these expressions into the given Cartesian equation.
Step 2: Replace x with r * cos(θ) and y with r * sin(θ) in the equation 3y - 5x = 2. This gives 3(r * sin(θ)) - 5(r * cos(θ)) = 2.
Step 3: Factor out r from the terms involving sin(θ) and cos(θ). The equation becomes r * (3 * sin(θ) - 5 * cos(θ)) = 2.
Step 4: Solve for r by dividing both sides of the equation by (3 * sin(θ) - 5 * cos(θ)). This results in r = 2 / (3 * sin(θ) - 5 * cos(θ)).
Step 5: The polar form of the equation is now expressed as r = 2 / (3 * sin(θ) - 5 * cos(θ)). Ensure the denominator is not zero to avoid undefined values.
