HOW TO COMPUTE RECTANGULAR TO POLAR IN EASIEST WAY
32To convert rectangular coordinates to polar coordinates, follow these steps:
1. Determine the values of x and y in the rectangular form (x, y).
2. Calculate the magnitude, r, using this formula:
r = sqrt(x^2 + y^2)
Where, sqrt() denotes the square root function.
3. Calculate the angle, θ, using this formula:
θ = arctan(y/x)
Where, arctan() denotes the inverse tangent function.
4. The polar coordinates are represented as (r, θ).
Note:
- r represents the distance from the origin to the point.
- θ represents the angle between the x-axis and the line joining the origin to the point. The angle is measured in radians. You may need to convert the result from radians to degrees if required.
