Question

Analyze the graph of the given polar curve. If possible, describe the shape of the graph (circle,rose curve, limacon, etc), and state the domain, range, and maximum r-value of the graph. State whether the graph is continuous and whether is is bounded. Describe any symmetry the graph has. Give the equations of any asymptotes or state that the graph has no asymptotes. r= -2cos5theta

Answer 1

Rose petal with 5 petals

Domain: all real numbers

Range: [-2,2]

Symmetric about the x-axis

Continuous

Bounded

Maximum r-value: 2

No asymptotes
