MATLAB: R=e^(costheta)-2cos(4*theta) graphic on MATLAB

equationexpMATLABtheta

I want to do the graphic of this equation in matlab but i can't make it work, can someone help me please? this is my code so far:

theta=linspace(-pi,pi,100);

r = exp(theta)-2*cos(4*theta);

polar(theta,r);

I got the graph and it is the same in Wolfram alpha there is nothing wrong with it.

You are not passing theta_n and other parameters to root2d(). One fix is to make root2d a Nested Function. Also, you must choose a different initial point. phi0 = [10,10] worked for me.

function solve_it()
    beta_a = 10;
    alpha_n = 10 ;
    eta= 18;
    i = 18;
    theta_i = 10;
    theta_n = 10 ;
    
    fun = @root2d;
    phi0 = [10,10];
    phi = fsolve(fun,phi0);
    phi_n = phi(1),
    phi_i = phi(2),
    function F = root2d(phi)
    F = zeros(2,1);
    F(1) = (pi*sin((pi*(phi(1) + theta_n))/180)*cos((pi*phi(2))/180)*(cos((pi*theta_n)/180) + tan((pi*i)/180)*tan((pi*theta_i)/180)))/(180*sin((pi*phi(1))/180)*(cos((pi*(phi(1) + theta_n))/180)*cos((phi(2)*pi)/180) + sin((phi(2)*pi)/180)*tan((theta_i*pi)/180))^2) - (pi*cos((pi*phi(1))/180)*(cos((pi*theta_n)/180) + tan((pi*i)/180)*tan((pi*theta_i)/180)))/(180*sin((phi(1)*pi)/180)^2*(cos((pi*(phi(1) + theta_n))/180)*cos((pi*phi(2))/180) + sin((pi*phi(2))/180)*tan((pi*theta_i)/180)));
    F(2) = ((cos((pi*theta_n)/180) + tan((pi*i)/180)*tan((pi*theta_i)/180))*((pi*cos((pi*(phi(1) + theta_n))/180)*sin((pi*phi(2))/180))/180 - (pi*cos((pi*phi(2))/180)*tan((pi*theta_i)/180))/180))/(sin((pi*phi(1))/180)*(cos((pi*(phi(1) + theta_n))/180)*cos((phi(2)*pi)/180) + sin((phi(2)*pi)/180)*tan((theta_i*pi)/180))^2);
    end
end
