Pronunciation of Limacon

1.3k Views Asked by At

I have a presentation on common polar graphs.

one of them is the graph of $b+a\cos{\theta}$, or a limacon.

however, i'm not sure as to whether it's pronounced

-lih-muh-son

-lih-muh-con

-lie-ma-con

-lih-muh-cone

etc.. i've seen 10 pronounciation videos so far (i can't read phonics) and they all are inconsistent with one another.

does anyone know the real pronunciation??

p.s. tags are irrelevant, my apologies.
