OCR A Level: Further Pure 2 - Polar Coordinates [June 2013 Q8]

Calculus Level 4

The equation of a curve is x 2 + y 2 x = x 2 + y 2 x^2+y^2-x=\sqrt{x^2+y^2} .

( i ) (\text{i}) Find the polar equation of the curve in the form r = f ( θ ) r=f(\theta) .
( ii ) (\text{ii}) Sketch the curve.
( iii ) (\text{iii}) The line x + 2 y = 2 x+2y=2 divides the region enclosed by the curve into two parts. Find the ratio of the two areas. (If the ratio is a : b a:b in its simplest form, input a + b a+b as your answer.)
