Area Between Polar Curves (Example 1)

Calculus 2 example video that explains how to find the area between two polar curves using integration. This example video shows the process of finding the area outside a circle and inside a polar rose: setting up the integral using the formula, using the graphs to find the bounds of integration (alpha and beta), using the symmetry of the graphs to assist in calculating the area, and completion of the integral once it is set up. A typical example found in a Calculus 2 course.
