A polar equation is an equation that describes a relation between r and θ, where r represents the distance from the pole (origin) to a point on a curve, and θ represents the counterclockwise angle made by a point on a curve, the pole, and the positive x-axis.

Examples of polar equations are:


\begin{gathered} r=5 \\ r=1-2\cos\theta \\ r=3\cos2\theta \end{gathered}

These polar equations can be plotted as shown below using a graphing calculator:


r=5
r=1-2\cos(\theta)
r=3\cos2\theta
