The comet might intersect the planet's orbit at the points
Step 1 :To find the intersection points, we need to solve the system of equations given by the planet's orbit and the comet's path.
Step 2 :We can substitute the expression for
Step 3 :Solving the equation
Step 4 :Using these
Step 5 :The intersection points are
Step 6 :The comet might intersect the planet's orbit at the points
