I don't know which command to determine the tangent lines that are parallel to the line $x=0$ (i.e. the y-axis) in Polar Coordinates. Can you help me please to give me some suggestions?
I attach some code which I have written:
theta = 45;
the = theta*Pi/180;
alp = 2;
gc = Sqrt[1 + alp*Sin[x - the]*Sin[x - the]];
yy = 1./gc;
PolarPlot[yy, {x, 0, 2*Pi}, PolarAxes -> True,
PolarTicks -> {"Degrees", Automatic}, PolarGridLines -> True,
Mesh -> 15, MeshStyle -> Directive[PointSize[Large], Red]]
