Polar Graphs

The Cartesian and polar graphs of y = cos(n x) and r = cos(n q) are plotted simultaneously.
Choose a value of n, click “Generate”, then click “Start” to begin.
You can drag the "Set Speed" slider to adjust the speed at which the two graphs are plotted.
When the plot is stopped, you can drag the "Set position" slider to change the plot point on the two graphs.

Value of n:
1 2 3 4 5 6
Set Speed: [slow] [fast]

Set position:
