Question

Determine if the graph is symmetric about the x-axis, the y-axis, or the origin.

r = 2 + 3 sin θ

Answer 1

this should help you find the answer
sin x is symmetrical about the origin
The 3 will stretch the graph of sinx parallel to the y axis , factor 3
the + 2 will translate the graph 2 units upwards

Answer 2

Hmmm okay

Answer 3

I'm not sure what you mean

Answer 4

there are the 3 graphs demonstrating the transformation of sin x to 2 + 3 sin x

Answer 5

The green one is the final graph y = 2 + 3 sin x.

Answer 6

Does that mean that it is symmetric about the x-axis?

Answer 7

Answer 8

If the x axis is a mirror, is the green graph below the x axis the same as the part of green graph above the x axis?
