Hi Amer,what is the best way to graph in polar coordinates say
[tex]r = 3 - 5 \cos \theta [/tex]
is it to plot several points then make a curve between them or ?
thanks so i need to plot some points. okHi Amer,
Unless the curve given is a standard curve (circle, ellipse etc) or can be transformed into a standard form, we have to plot it by marking points. I drew your curve using Maxima.

Yes. Try plotting it and see if it really fits the curve I have attached.thanks so i need to plot some points. ok
