r=10cos(t) in cylindrical coordinates 2013-05-18
From r.m:
question from calculus exam: what is the figure obtained having eqn.r=10cos(t) in cylinderical coordinates? i know it is a cylinder with center (5,0) ,but can't the equation represent two cylinders ,one with center (5,0) and the other with center (-5,0). thanks for any help.

A valentines project 2000-02-21
From Courtney Dohoney:
I was assigned a valentines project. Our job is to make a valentines card that has a math theme. On my valentines card I would like to include the set of equations that when graphed look like a heart. If you can figure out a set of equations and get it back to me I would be very happy.
