\"\"

\

The polar equation is \"\".

\

The equation is of the form \"\" and \"\".

\

The function represents a Limaçon with inner loop.

\

Because this polar equation is a function of the cosine function, it is symmetric with respect to the polar axis. \ \

\

Construct a table and calculate the values of \"\" on \"\".
