Polar Coordinates

You can use this application to graph functions on the polar coordinate system. Use the animate box to watch the function trace its values.

Some interesting functions to try (use the input box)

g(x) = ℯ^(sin(x)) - 2 cos(4 x) + sin((x - π / 2) / 12)⁵
g(x) = 2cos(2x/3)
g(x) = 4cos(2x)
g(x) = sin(x) + sin^3(5x/2)
g(x) = 4cos(4x)
g(x) = 2x
g(x) = 1/sqrt(x) *this one is undefined for negatives, so be patient =)
g(x) = x*sin(x)
