TopicPolar coordinates

10 The curve \(C\) has polar equation \(r = 2 \sin \theta ( 1 - \cos \theta )\), for \(0 \leqslant \theta \leqslant \pi\). Find \(\frac { \mathrm { d } r } { \mathrm {~d} \theta }\) and hence find the polar coordinates of the point of \(C\) that is furthest from the pole. Sketch \(C\). Find the exact area of the sector from \(\theta = 0\) to \(\theta = \frac { 1 } { 4 } \pi\).
