spiral

...If the intersection point of the tangent at point P on this curve with the x- axis is Q, then the length of PQ is always a (Figure 20). (8) A curve that can be expressed in polar coordinates as r = f (θ) ( f is monotonic) is generally called a spiral, spiral , or other such term. In particular, curves expressed as r = , r = aebθ , and r = a /θ ( a and b are constants) are called Archimedes' spiral, logarithmic spiral, and hyperbolic spiral, respectively (Figure 21). ...
