Freeth's Nephroid
A Strophoid of a Circle with the Pole 
at the Center of the Circle and the fixed point 
on the Circumference of the Circle. In a paper published by the London Mathematical Society in 1879, T. J. Freethdescribed it and various other MacTutor Archive). If the line through Parallelto the y-Axis cuts the Nephroid at 
, then Angle 
is 
, so this curve can be used toconstruct a regular Heptagon. The Polar equation is
