How do you use polar coordinates in graphing? - Answers

In much the same way as you use rectangular coordinates.With Cartesian or rectangular coordinates, you start from the origin and move a distance of x in the horizontal direction and then a distance of y in the vertical direction.Using polar coordinates, you start from the origin along a ray inclined at an angle theta with the positive horizontal axis (clockwise from Eastwards), and you go a distance r along that ray.In all but degenerate cases the Cartesian coordinates of (r, theta) arex = r*cos(theta) and y = r*sin(theta)while, conversely,r = sqrt(x2 + y2) and theta = arctan(y/x).
