r=acos(bθ)/r=asin(bθ): a ?

petal length

r=acos(bθ)/r=asin(bθ): b ?

odd = number of petals

even = double number of petals

r=acos(bθ): petal placement?

petals over polar ax (on polar axis)

r=asin(bθ): petal placement ?

petals don’t lie over polar axis (off polar axis)

What is the difference in the equation?

the b is in the inside of the equation
