Easy math questions please help?
Test the equation for symmetry with respect to the specified axis, line, or pole.
r=4+2sinΘ with the line Θ=pie/2
and
r=4+2cosΘ with the pole
obviously I did try *** hole. If you dont know how to do it then why comment?

For the first one you can check to see if r(Θ) = r(π-Θ)
This is because π-Θ gives the reflection of Θ about the y-axis. Plug in some values and see for yourself.
4+2sin(π-Θ) = 4+2[sin(π)cos(Θ) - sin(Θ)cos(π)]
= 4+2[0- (-sinΘ)]
=4+2sinΘ
For the second one you can check to see if r(Θ) = r(Θ+π)
This is because Θ+π gives the reflection of Θ about the origin.
4+2cos(Θ+π) = 4+2[cos(Θ)cos(π) - sin(Θ)sin(π)]
=4+2[-cosΘ]
=4-2cosΘ

If it's easy, why won't you try to solve it by yourself first before asking for our help, right?
