$A$ curve is given by the equations $x = a \cos \theta + \frac{1}{2}b \cos 2\theta$ and $y = a \sin \theta + \frac{1}{2}b \sin 2\theta$. The points for which $\frac{d^2y}{dx^2} = 0$ are given by:

  • A
    $\sin \theta = \frac{2a^2 + b^2}{5ab}$
  • B
    $\tan \theta = \frac{3a^2 + 2b^2}{4ab}$
  • C
    $\cos \theta = - \frac{a^2 + 2b^2}{3ab}$
  • D
    $\cos \theta = \frac{a^2 - 2b^2}{3ab}$
