Flower
This is a flower in my room that I plotted on a polar grid. It’s equation is f(theta)=4.1sin(6theta-1.58). 4.1 is the length of each petal, the 6 determines the number of petals, there are 12 petals, and 1.58 is the rotation around the origin of the petals to fit the flower. There are actually 13 petals on this flower, but I was only able to model 12 of them because when i typed in 6.5 i got a half of a curve, not another petal. It’s a poor model, I think, but it is the best that I could do.
