Short Answer

Identify and graph each polar equation. Verify your graph using a graphing utility

r=1+sinθ

See the step by step solution

Step by Step Solution

Step 1. Given information

r=1+sinθ

Step 2. Replacing θ by -θ

r=1+sin-θr=1-sinθ

graph is symmetric with polar axis.

Step 3. Replace θ by π-θ

Graph is symmetric with line θ=π2

Step 4. Replace r with -r

r=1+sinθ-r=1+sinθr=-1-sinθ

Graph may or may not be symmetric with respect to pole.

Step 5. Making the graph we get,
