The range is the set of outputs for r. The domain and range can be read from the “trace” or “table” features on your calculator. The maximum r-value is the maximum distance from the pole. This can be found using trace, or by knowing the range of the function. Symmetry can be about the x-axis, y-axis, or origin, just as it was in rectangular equations. Continuity, boundedness, and asymptotes are analyzed the same way they were for rectangular equations. r = 4sin3θ Domain: All reals Range: [-4, 4] Maximum r-value: 4 Symmetry: y-axis Continuity: continuous Boundedness: bounded Asymptotes: none r = 4cos3θ Domain: All reals Range: [-4, 4] Maximum r-value: 4 Symmetry: x-axis Continuity: continuous Boundedness: bounded Asymptotes: none r = 2 – 3sinθ Domain: All reals Range: [-1, 5] Maximum r-value: 5 Symmetry: y-axis Continuity: continuous Boundedness: bounded Asymptotes: none r = 2 +2sinθ Domain: All reals Range: [0, 4] Maximum r-value: 4 Symmetry: y-axis Continuity: continuous Boundedness: bounded Asymptotes: none r = 3 +2cosθ Domain: All reals Range: [1,5] Maximum r-value: 5 Symmetry: x-axis Continuity: continuous Boundedness: bounded Asymptotes: none r = 2 – 1cosθ Domain: All reals Ra
