POLAR COORDINATE SYSTEMS
• A polar coordinate system in a plane consists of a fixed point O, called
the pole(or origin), and a ray emanating from the pole, called the
polar axis.

• If a point P has polar coordinates (r, θ), then (r, θ +2nπ) and (r,θ −2nπ)
are also polar coordinates of P for any nonnegative integer n.
• Thus, every point has infinitely many pairs of polar coordinates.
• We define negative radial coordinates by agreeing that (−r, θ) and
(r, θ +π) are polar coordinates of the same point.

FAMILIES OF CIRCLES
We will consider three families of circles in which a is assumed to be a
positive constant: (i) r =a (2) r =2acosθ and (3)r =2asinθ
• Observe that replacing θ by −θ does not change the equation r = 2a cos θ and that replacing θ by π − θ does not change the equation r = 2a
sin θ. This explains why the circles in Figure are symmetric about the x-axis and are symmetric about the y-axis.

FAMILIES OF ROSE CURVES
14
• r = a sin nθ and r = a cos nθ in which a > 0 and n is a positive integer
represent families of flower-shaped curves called roses. The rose
consists of n equally spaced petals of radius a if n is odd and 2n
equally spaced petals of radius a if n is even.
15
Example: r = cos 2θ
16
FAMILIES OF LIMAÇONS AND
CARDIOIDS
• Equations with any of the four forms r = a ± bsinθ ; r = a ± bcosθ in
which a > 0 and b > 0 represent polar curves called limaçons
• from the Latin word limax for a snail-like creature that is commonly
called a “slug” .
• There are four possible shapes for a limaçon that are determined by
the ratio a/b .
• If a = b (the case a/b =1), then the limaçon is called a cardioid because
of its heart-shaped appearance.

FAMILIES OF SPIRALS
• A spiral is a curve that coils around a central point. Spirals generally
have “left-hand” and “right-hand” versions that coil in opposite
directions, depending on the restrictions on the polar angle and the
signs of constants that appear in their equations.

TANGENT LINES TO POLAR CURVES
• To find a method for obtaining slopes of tangent lines to polar curves
of the form r = f(θ) in which r is a differentiable function of θ.
• let x = r cosθ and y = r sinθ.
• This yields x = f(θ)cosθ, y = f(θ)sinθ
44
• Thus, if dx/dθ and dy/dθ are continuous and if dx/dθ 0, then y is a differentiable
function of x, then we get the slope as follows:

54
4.(10)Find polar coordinates of all points at which the polar curve has a
horizontal or a vertical tangent line for r= a sinθ.
Solution: this circle is traced completely if θ varies from 0 to . So the θ
values in this interval should be considered.
Wkt
This gives x= a sinθ cosθ and y= a sinθ sinθ =.
And dx/dθ = a sinθ(- sinθ)+a cosθ cosθ = acos2
dy/dθ= 2asinθcosθ = asin2θ
dx/dθ= 0 implies acos2 =0 2θ = /2 θ = /4 .
dy/dθ=0 implies asin2 =0 2θ =0 θ =0 ,
55
• Vertical tangent line occurs at θ = /4 (at these θ, dy/dθ
• Therefore at θ = , r = and at θ = /4 , r =
• Therefore at θ = , r = and at θ = /2 , r =
