Hey Luke Rapley...

Are you this smart?? or are there two smart guys out there with the exact name name? vbg

(did a search under your name looking for website and got this:

Polar equations can represent many different types of graphs. Possibly one of the most well known is the n-leaf rose. An example of a five leaf rose is shown below.

Although the n-leaf rose is a very interesting equation to explore, the equations that will be explored here are of the form, where p is any real number. Also in this discussion, the 'cos(t)' in the previous equation will be replaced with 'sin(t)' to allow for the comparison between the two equations.

The first equation that will be discussed is, for p=-2,-1,1,2. The colors of the values for p just mentioned correspond to with the graph in Figure 1 (ie. -2 is orange so it corresponds to the orange lines).

Heck - I took Algebra, Trig, Calc, AND Physics and I got lost in the INDEX of the "equation" page vbg
