The area inside a polar curve is given by a formula for A, where [alpha,beta] is the interval over which we’re integrating, and where r is the equation of the polar curve. Plugging everything into the formula will let us calculate the area bounded by the polar curve.
Read MoreThe best way to solve for the area inside both polar curves is to graph both curves, then based on the graphs, look for the easiest areas to calculate and use those to go about finding the area inside both curves. We’ll solve for the points of intersection and use those as the bounds of integration.
