Math Problem Statement
A point is graphed in rectangular form. Find polar coordinates for the point, with r > 0 and 0 ≤ 𝜃 < 2𝜋. (r, 𝜃) =
Solution
To find the polar coordinates of a point in rectangular form, we use the following formulas:
- (distance from the origin).
- (angle with the positive x-axis, adjusted for quadrant).
Let me know the coordinates of the point in rectangular form (e.g., ), and I can calculate the polar coordinates for you.
