find the area inside the curve r = sin(theta) and outside the curve given by r = 2 + sin(theta). any ideas?

OpenStudy (amistre64):

what are the points of intersection ... or in this case the thetas if intersection

OpenStudy (amistre64):

hmmm, looks to be more of a donut than anything else

OpenStudy (amistre64):

id take the area of the "egg" and subtract the area of the circle inside o fit

OpenStudy (amistre64):

but i prolly just read the question a little backwards :)

OpenStudy (amistre64):

inside the little and outside the bigger ..... theres no way to define that unless your post has them backwards

OpenStudy (anonymous):

there is no point of intersections...the problem just states find the area inside the curve r = sin(theta) and outside the curve given by r = 2 + sin(theta)

OpenStudy (amistre64):

yeah, at first i had the wrong picture in my head :) this thing looks like an egg
