  1. The greatest value of \(r\) on the curve occurs at the point \(P\).
    1. Show that \(\theta = \frac { 1 } { 4 } \pi\) at the point \(P\).
    2. Find the value of \(r\) at the point \(P\).
    3. Mark the point \(P\) on a copy of the graph.
  2. In this question you must show detailed reasoning. Find the exact area of the region enclosed by the curve.
