Answer

The polar equation of the given polar curve $r=1-\sin \theta $.

Work Step by Step

From the given polar curve, we can observe that it is heart-shaped or cardioid. Since, $\frac{a}{b}=1$ And from the graph, For, $\theta =\frac{\pi }{2}$ $r=0$ By applying the above condition, we can conclude that the polar equation for the graph will be $r=1-\sin \theta $.
