here's the graph

An integral should do it :)
OpenStudy (loser66):
I think we just take integral on one loop and then multiple by 4 to get the answer, right? @Kurd
OpenStudy (loser66):
\[\int_{0}^{\pi/2}(2+sin 4\theta) d\theta\]
OpenStudy (loser66):
and it is not hard to find out the result.

I'm flattered that you actually remember my name :D
...almost.
I suggest just get the integral all the way from 0 to 2pi.
OpenStudy (loser66):
either ways work well. :) since the graph is symmetric.
OpenStudy (anonymous):
what if I use 7pi/6 and pi/6 as my higher and lower limits is that okay?
OpenStudy (irishboy123):
you are looking for area, not arc length, of one full loop. A = ∑∆A = ∑(1/2)r^2∆ø = 1/2∫r^2 dø
of course it looks symmetric but i do not see why you should not just use a normal interval.
