This study guide covers polar functions and their graphs. It explains polar coordinates (r, θ), contrasts them with Cartesian coordinates, and provides graphing steps. Key examples like the spiral (r = θ) and circle (r = sin(θ)) are explored. The guide also discusses symmetry and periodicity of polar graphs, and offers practice questions covering graphing, properties, and conversions between coordinate systems (covered elsewhere).
