Set up integrals to find the area between the loops of one petal of the function r = 2 cos(50) - 1. It may help to look at the corresponding function y = 2 cos(5x)-1. You may use symmetry if you wish. Then use computer software to find a numerical approximation of the area (you could actually work these, but it's tedious.)
