  1. Test Symmetry Polar Axis: Test for symmetry with respect to the polar axis by replacing (r,θ)(r, \theta) with (r,θ)(r, -\theta). Original equation: r2=9sin(2θ)r^{2} = 9\sin(2\theta) Replace θ\theta with θ-\theta: r2=9sin(2(θ))=9sin(2θ)r^{2} = 9\sin(2(-\theta)) = 9\sin(-2\theta) Since sin(2θ)=sin(2θ)\sin(-2\theta) = -\sin(2\theta), the equation becomes r2=9sin(2θ)r^{2} = -9\sin(2\theta), which is not the same as the original equation.
  2. Test Symmetry Line Theta: Test for symmetry with respect to the line θ=π2\theta=\frac{\pi}{2} by replacing (r,θ)(r, \theta) with (r,πθ)(r, \pi-\theta). Original equation: r2=9sin(2θ)r^{2} = 9\sin(2\theta) Replace θ\theta with πθ\pi-\theta: r2=9sin(2(πθ))=9sin(2π2θ)r^{2} = 9\sin(2(\pi-\theta)) = 9\sin(2\pi - 2\theta) Since sin(2π2θ)=sin(2θ)\sin(2\pi - 2\theta) = \sin(-2\theta), and we know sin(2θ)=sin(2θ)\sin(-2\theta) = -\sin(2\theta), the equation does not remain the same.
  3. Test Symmetry Pole: Test for symmetry with respect to the pole by replacing (r,θ)(r, \theta) with (r,θ)(-r, \theta). Original equation: r2=9sin(2θ)r^{2} = 9\sin(2\theta) Replace rr with r-r: (r)2=9sin(2θ)(-r)^{2} = 9\sin(2\theta) Since (r)2=r2(-r)^{2} = r^{2}, the equation remains the same.
