Step 1 :

\

The polar equation is \"\".

\

Construct a table for different values of \"\".

\ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \
\"\"\"\"\"\"\"\"\"\"\"\"\"\"\"\"\"\"\"\"
\"\"\"\"\"\"undefined\"\"\"\"\"\"undefined\"\"\"\"
\"\"\"\"\"\"undefined\"\"\"\"\"\"undefined\"\"\"\"
\

Step 2 :

\

Graph:

\

(1) Draw the polar co-ordinate plane.

\

(2) Plot the polar points.

\

(3) Connect the points to a straight line.

\

\"\"

\

The graph of the polar equation \"\" is not evident by simple inspection.

\

so convert it into rectangular form.

\

Conversion from polar to rectangular equation :

\

\"image\" and \"image\".

\

The polar equation is \"\".

\

Consider \"\".

\

\"\"

\

The rectangular form of \"\" is \"\".

\

Solution :

\

The graph of the polar equation \"\" is

\

\"\"

\

The rectangular form of \"\" is \"\".
