Thread: Find the area of the clover

Find the area bounded by one loop of the "four leaf clover":



it will be easier if i can draw the picture of it, but i'm having a hard time doing so, any help will be appearicated.

does it look like a figure eight curve rotated 90 degrees over another?

Have you tried converting to polar coordinates?

What's you're third dimension?

Here's a 2D plot I get: (x^2+y^2)^3=4x^2y& #94;2 - Wolfram|Alpha

For some reason, it wouldn't plot in 2D.
