We all use antennas at our homes and a fact lies that antennas transmit some form of radiation. The radiation, however is not uniform in all directions. While conducting a research of the antenna radiation, a group of scientists modeled the intensity from a particular antenna by r=acos^2θ (i). Convert the polar equation to rectangular coordinates. (ii). Use Mathematica to plot the model for a=4 and a=6 (iii). Find the area of the geographical region between the two curves in past (ii).
