A curve is given in polar coordinates by

Failed to parse (MathML with SVG or PNG fallback (recommended for modern browsers and accessibility tools): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle r=1+\sin 2\theta}

$0\leq \theta \leq 2\pi$

(a) Sketch the curve.

(b) Find the area enclosed by the curve.

Background Information:
The area under a polar curve  $r=f(\theta )$  is given by

Solution:

(a):
450px

(b)

Step 1:
Since the graph has symmetry (as seen in the previous image),
the area of the curve is

Step 2:
Using the double angle formula for  Failed to parse (MathML with SVG or PNG fallback (recommended for modern browsers and accessibility tools): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle \sin(2\theta),}   we have

Step 3:
Lastly, we evaluate to get

Final Answer:
(a)     See above.
(b)     Failed to parse (MathML with SVG or PNG fallback (recommended for modern browsers and accessibility tools): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle \frac{3\pi}{2}}
