Stephanie's Reflection

Limacon
r = a+b sin theta
r = a+b cos theta

Cardioid
a-b sin theta
a-b cos theta

Rose
r = a sin n theta
r = a cos n theta
n is how many petals

Archimedes Spiral
r = a theta +b

Logarithmic Spiral
r=a^theta b

Converting
polar to rectangular
x=r cos theta
y=r sin theta

rectangular to polar
r=+/- sqrt x^2 + y^2
theta is (x/y)
