Rewrite the equation
3x2+3y2=x4+y4+1+2x2y2
Evaluate
r2−r−1=0
Rewrite the expression
r2−r=1
To covert the equation to rectangular coordinates using conversion formulas,substitute x2+y2 for r2
x2+y2−r=1
Simplify the expression
−r=−x2−y2+1
Square both sides of the equation
(−r)2=(−x2−y2+1)2
To covert the equation to rectangular coordinates using conversion formulas,substitute x2+y2 for r2
x2+y2=(−x2−y2+1)2
Calculate
x2+y2=x4+y4+1+2x2y2−2x2−2y2
Move the expression to the left side
x2+y2−(−2x2−2y2)=x4+y4+1+2x2y2
