Can You Graph This Polar Equation?

Apr 04, 2024

Hi there!

Today I have a new Calculus 2 video for you on graphing a seemingly tricky polar equation.

More specifically, here is what you will learn in this video:

  1. What to do when graphing a polar equation that is not in a special form
  2. How to convert a polar equation to a rectangular equation
  3. How to use an equivalent rectangular equation to aid in graphing a polar equation

If you are currently learning about the polar coordinate system, will be soon, or like solving tricky calculus problems, then this video is for you. (I'd even recommend trying to graph the equation without my help first! Then watch the video and compare your result to mine to see how well you did!)

Also, I've made a worksheet to accompany this video that you can download for absolutely free here. 

Enjoy!
