Question
Please be detailed with your answer
![**Problem Statement:**
Find all points (if any) of horizontal and vertical tangency to the portion of the curve shown. (Enter your answers as a comma-separated list.)
**Parametric Equations:**
- \( x = \cos \theta + \theta \sin \theta \)
- \( y = \sin \theta - \theta \cos \theta \)
- \(-2\pi \leq \theta \leq 2\pi \)
**Horizontal Tangents:**
\[
\theta = \pi, 2\pi
\]
**Vertical Tangents:**
\[
\theta = \frac{\pi}{2}, -\frac{\pi}{2}, \frac{3\pi}{2}, -\frac{3\pi}{2}
\]
**Explanation of the Graph:**
The graph features a polar curve in the XY-plane. The graph is centered on the origin and extends outward in a circular pattern, showing symmetry around the x-axis. The plotted curve undulates around the center, suggesting that at angles listed for horizontal tangents (\(\pi, 2\pi\)), the slope of the curve is 0, meaning the curve is flat and tangent to the x-axis. At the angles given for vertical tangents (\(\frac{\pi}{2}, -\frac{\pi}{2}, \frac{3\pi}{2}, -\frac{3\pi}{2}\)), the curve is tangent to lines perpendicular to the x-axis, indicating infinite slope. The graph helps visualize these specific points of tangency.](https://content.bartleby.com/qna-images/question/29b5f486-adb3-4cc3-b768-2d8a64fa9dd5/177a053c-7170-4ba3-801d-7d3082dfd20f/o765c3d_thumbnail.jpeg)
