Archimedes' Spiral
An Archimedean Spiral with Polar equation
This spiral was studied by Conon, and later by Archimedes
in On Spirals about 225 BC. 
Archimedes was able to work out the lengths of various tangents to the spiral.Archimedes' spiral can be used for Compass and Straightedge division of an Angle into 
parts(including Angle Trisection) and can also be used for Circle Squaring. In addition, the curvecan be used as a cam to convert uniform circular motion into uniform linear motion. The cam consists of one arch of thespiral above the x-Axis together with its reflection in the x-Axis. Rotating this with uniformangular velocity 
about its center will result in uniform linear motion of the point whereit crosses the y-Axis.
