Folium of Descartes   A curve called the folium of Descartes can be represented by the parametric equations

\(x=\frac{3 t}{1+t^{3}}\)     and     \(\quad y=\frac{3 t^{2}}{1+t^{3}}\).

(a) Convert the parametric equations to polar form.

(b) Sketch the graph of the polar equation from part (a).

(c) Use a graphing utility to approximate the area enclosed by the loop of the curve.
