In the question, we are asked to identify the type of polar graph for the equation.


r^2=9\cos 2\theta

Step-by-step explanation

The formulas that generate the graph of a lemniscate is given by


\displaystyle{r}^2={a}^2\cos 2\theta​​\text{ and }r^2=a^2\sin 2\theta\text{ where a}\\e0

Therefore from the given equation


r^2=3^2\cos 2\theta

Answer: g
