Rectangular Aids for Polar Graphs.
Essary, Alice W.
Two-Year College Mathematics Journal, v13 n3 p200-03 Jun 1982

This approach involves the use of an auxiliary graph in rectangular coordinates and is thought to aid students in understanding of problem-solving situations such as in dealing with points of intersection and determination of limits of integration.
