    SOLUTION:

    The equation is of the form r = a + b cos anda = b, so its graph is a cardioid. Because this polar equation is a function of the cosine function, it is symmetric with respect to the polar axis. Sketch the graph of the rectangular function y = 6 +

    6 cos x on the interval . From the graph, you

    can see that =12whenx = 0 and y = 0 when x = .

    30.r2 = 4 cos 2

    SOLUTION:

    The equation is of the form r2 = a

    2 cos 2 , so its

    graphisalemniscate.

    Replacing (r, ) with (r, ) yields r2 = 4 cos 2

    ( ). Since cosine is an even function, r2 = 4 cos 2

    ( ) can be written as r2 = 4 cos 2 , and the

    function has symmetry with respect to the polar axis.

    Replacing (r, ) with (r, ) yields (r)2 = 4 cos

    2( ) or r2 = 4 cos 2( ). Again, since cosine is an

    even function, r2 = 4 cos 2( ) can be written as r2

    = 4 cos 2 , and the function has symmetry with

    respect to the line = .

    Finally, replacing (r, ) with (r, ) yields (r)2 = 4

    cos 2 or r2 = 4 cos 2 . Therefore, the function

    has symmetry with respect to the pole.

    The equation r2 = 4 cos 2 is equivalent to r =

    , which is undefined when cos 2 < 0. Therefore, the domain of the function is restricted to

    the intervals and .

    Sketch the graph of the rectangular function y =

    you can see that =2whenx = 0 and y = 0 when

    The equation is of the form r = a + b, so its graph is a spiral of Archimedes. The function has no symmetry. Spirals are unbounded. Therefore, the function has no maximum r-values and only one zero. To find the zero, substitute r = 0 into the function and solve for

    .

    So, r = 0 when , which is not in the given

    domain. Use points on the interval [0, 4] to sketch the graphof the function.

    30.r2 = 4 cos 2

    SOLUTION:

    The equation is of the form r2 = a

    2 cos 2 , so its

    graphisalemniscate.

    Replacing (r, ) with (r, ) yields r2 = 4 cos 2

    ( ). Since cosine is an even function, r2 = 4 cos 2

    ( ) can be written as r2 = 4 cos 2 , and the

    function has symmetry with respect to the polar axis.

    Replacing (r, ) with (r, ) yields (r)2 = 4 cos

    2( ) or r2 = 4 cos 2( ). Again, since cosine is an

    even function, r2 = 4 cos 2( ) can be written as r2

    = 4 cos 2 , and the function has symmetry with

    respect to the line = .

    Finally, replacing (r, ) with (r, ) yields (r)2 = 4

    cos 2 or r2 = 4 cos 2 . Therefore, the function

    has symmetry with respect to the pole.

    The equation r2 = 4 cos 2 is equivalent to r =

    , which is undefined when cos 2 < 0. Therefore, the domain of the function is restricted to

    the intervals and .

    SOLUTION:

    The equation is of the form r = a + b, so its graph is a spiral of Archimedes. The function has no symmetry. Spirals are unbounded. Therefore, the function has no maximum r-values and only one zero. To find the zero, substitute r = 0 into the function and solve for

    .

    So, r = 0 when , which is not in the given

    domain. Use points on the interval [0, 4] to sketch the graphof the function.

    function has symmetry with respect to the polar axis.

    Replacing (r, ) with (r, ) yields (r)2 = 4 cos

    2( ) or r2 = 4 cos 2( ). Again, since cosine is an

    even function, r2 = 4 cos 2( ) can be written as r2

    = 4 cos 2 , and the function has symmetry with

    respect to the line = .

    Finally, replacing (r, ) with (r, ) yields (r)2 = 4

    cos 2 or r2 = 4 cos 2 . Therefore, the function

    has symmetry with respect to the pole.

    The equation r2 = 4 cos 2 is equivalent to r =

    , which is undefined when cos 2 < 0. Therefore, the domain of the function is restricted to

    the intervals and .

    you can see that =2whenx = 0 and y = 0 when

    .

    equation r2 = 4 cos 2 , we can say that hasa

    maximum value of 2 when andr = 0 when

    .

    Use these points and the indicated symmetry to sketch the graph of the function.

    31.r = 5 + 2; >0

    SOLUTION:

    The equation is of the form r = a + b, so its graph is a spiral of Archimedes. The function has no symmetry. Spirals are unbounded. Therefore, the function has no maximum r-values and only one zero. To find the zero, substitute r = 0 into the function and solve for

    .

    So, r = 0 when , which is not in the given

    domain. Use points on the interval [0, 4] to sketch the graphof the function.

    30.r2 = 4 cos 2

    SOLUTION:

    The equation is of the form r2 = a

    2 cos 2 , so its

    graphisalemniscate.

    Replacing (r, ) with (r, ) yields r2 = 4 cos 2

    ( ). Since cosine is an even function, r2 = 4 cos 2

    ( ) can be written as r2 = 4 cos 2 , and the

    function has symmetry with respect to the polar axis.

    Replacing (r, ) with (r, ) yields (r)2 = 4 cos

    2( ) or r2 = 4 cos 2( ). Again, since cosine is an

    even function, r2 = 4 cos 2( ) can be written as r2

    = 4 cos 2 , and the function has symmetry with

    respect to the line = .

    Finally, replacing (r, ) with (r, ) yields (r)2 = 4

    cos 2 or r2 = 4 cos 2 . Therefore, the function

    has symmetry with respect to the pole.

    The equation r2 = 4 cos 2 is equivalent to r =

    , which is undefined when cos 2 < 0. Therefore, the domain of the function is restricted to

    the intervals and .

    Sketch the graph of the rectangular function y =

    ontheinterval . From the graph,

    you can see that =2whenx = 0 and y = 0 when

    .

    Interpreting these results in terms of the polar

    equation r2 = 4 cos 2 , we can say that hasa

    maximum value of 2 when andr = 0 when

    .

    Use these points and the indicated symmetry to sketch the graph of the function.

    31.r = 5 + 2; >0

    SOLUTION:

    The equation is of the form r = a + b, so its graph is a spiral of Archimedes. The function has no symmetry. Spirals are unbounded. Therefore, the function has no maximum r-values and only one zero. To find the zero, substitute r = 0 into the function and solve for

    .

    So, r = 0 when , which is not in the given

    domain. Use points on the interval [0, 4] to sketch the graphof the function.

    zeros.

    Interpreting these results in terms of the polar

    equation r = 3 2 sin , we can say that hasa
