原卷通用作答要求
Answer all questions. You should use a calculator where appropriate.
You must show all necessary working clearly; no marks will be given for unsupported answers from a calculator.
Give non-exact numerical answers correct to 3 significant figures, or 1 decimal place for angles in degrees, unless a different level of accuracy is specified in the question.
Here 0⩽θ⩽π.
The radius is zero at θ=0,2π,π, and positive between these angles. Sketch one loop in the first quadrant for 0<θ<2π and its mirror image in the second quadrant for 2π<θ<π, meeting at the pole. At the pole, each loop has one tangent along the initial line and one along the vertical axis.
Since replacing θ by π−θ leaves r2 unchanged, the line of symmetry is
