Express the polar equation \(r=\cos 2\theta\) in rectangular coordinates. Find the maximum height above the \(x\)-axis of the cardioid \(r=1+\cos \theta\text{.}\) Sketch the graph of the curve whose ...
FIG. 1 6: Cartesian and polar representation of a point. FIG. 1 7: Unit vectors in polar coordinates. Thus, if the Cartesian coordinates are known, the polar coordinates for the same point can be ...
Volumes using cross-sections, the disk method, the washer method and the shell method. Arc length and surface area. Infinite series, power series, Maclaurin and Taylor series. Polar coordinates and ...
STEP 2 - Plot the coordinates (2,3). Remember the x (horizontal) is the first number in the brackets and the y (vertical) is the second number. Each axis is labelled with a scale of numbers ...
But it doesn’t work like that. The custom machine they constructed utilises a polar coordinate system, with a rotating bed (the ‘theta’ axis) and four radial axis gantries arranged at 90 ...
This clip could be used in the classroom or in an assembly as a way of starting a conversation or as inspiration for artwork, poems or stories. This short film is relevant for teaching science at ...
Polar bears are the planet’s biggest land-based carnivores – although they actually spend most of their lives around water and ice (their Latin name means ‘sea bear’). So they’re at particular risk ...
