Homework Statement
(x^2 + y^2)/a^2 + z^2/c^2 = 1
Homework Equations
[/B]
The Attempt at a Solution
the answer is :
b(θ) = R / (f^2 * tan^2(θ/2) + 1)^0.5
I can't understand how to calculate this.
My attempt :
(x^2 + y^2)/a^2 + z^2/c^2 = 1 from this.
b^2 + z^2/f^2 = a^2 , f = c/a, z = b*cot(∅)
b^2 *[ 1 + {1/f*tan(∅)}^2 ] = a^2
could you give a hand?...
