Heres where I am struggling, I can't seem to change equations from rectangular to polar and vice versa
an example
x^2+y^2-2ax=0
heres what I got when I tried
r=2a cos theta
and that's a graph of a rose curve, I think, I am about 10% sure on that answer
heres an example of one I have no clue on
(x^2+y^2)(arctan(y/x))^2=a^2
heres what I am thinkin on this one
the x^2+y^2 can = r^2 and the arctan (y/x) can = theta
so you would have (r^2)(theta^2)=a^2
I don't know, I just can't get this
