Explanation:

The key to area in polar coordinates is the formula for the area of a sector:

  a = (1/2)r²θ

Then a differential of area* can be written as ...

  da = (1/2)r²·dθ

Filling in the given function for r, we have ...

  da = (1/2)(4cos(3θ))²·dθ = 8cos(3θ)²·dθ

The integral will have limits corresponding to the range of values of θ for one loop of the graph: -π/6 to π/6. So, the area is ...

  \displaystyle A=\int{da}=\int\limits_{-\pi /6}^{\pi /6}{8\cos{(3\theta)}^2}\, d\theta\\\\=8\int\limits_{-\pi /6}^{\pi /6}{\cos{(3\theta)}^2}

_____

* As with other approaches to finding area (horizontal or vertical slice, for example), we assume that the differential element dθ is sufficiently small that we need not concern ourselves with the fact that r is a function of θ.

Find the length of the hypotenuse of a right triangle whose legs have lengths 4 and 8
Irina18 [472]
Ya gotta use the Pythagorean theorem :)

a² + b² = c²      (reminder: c is the hypotenuse)

4² + 8² = c²

16 + 64 = 80

√80 = 8.94

H = 8.94

The intercept (factored) form a parabola.
Svet_ta [14]
The a value affects the graph by vertically stretching or compressing the graph.
The r and s values affect the zeros, or x intercepts of the parabola, and therefore the vertex.
Hope this helps!
