Solution
Let's break down the problem step by step. You're given the point in polar coordinates and asked to find different polar coordinate representations for the same point.
1. Plotting the Point
In polar coordinates, the point means:
- is the distance from the origin (pole). A negative means the point is in the direction opposite to the angle .
- indicates the angle measured counterclockwise from the positive polar axis. Since , it is equivalent to rotating to the angle , or 180 degrees (to the left), and then moving in the opposite direction due to the negative .
Part (a)
You need to find a new polar representation where:
Strategy:
To get , we change the sign of and adjust by adding or subtracting .
For the point , if we want , we change . To keep the point the same, we subtract from the angle, which gives us:
However, this angle is not in the range . To get an equivalent angle in the range, we subtract from :
So, the coordinates are:
Final Answer for Part (a):
The polar coordinates of the point with and are:
This satisfies the required conditions.
