Mathematicians have long noticed that the shapes of leaves and flowers of some plants are very similar to some closed curves.
They use equations to describe the outer contour of flowers. These curves are called "rose lines". Mathematically, there are three-leaf rose lines [equation is ρ = Asin (3β)] and four-leaf rose lines [equation is ρ = Asin (2β)]. The polar coordinate equations of these curves are very simple, and the basic form is: ρ=Asin(nβ), that is, the polar radius ρ of any point is a function of angle β; The rectangular coordinate equation is: x=Asin(nβ)cos(β), y=Asin(nβ)sin(β).
The following are the curve equations of several flowers obtained by scientists through research.
