Answer:
Cartesian Coordinate System
• Also called
rectangular coordinate
system
• x- and y- axes intersect
at the origin
• Points are labeled (x,y)
Polar Coordinate System
– Origin and reference
line are noted
– Point is distance r from
the origin in the
direction of angle θ,
ccw from reference
line
– Points are labeled (r,θ)
Cartesian to Polar Coordinates
• r is the hypotenuse and θ
an angle
θ must be ccw from
positive x axis for these
equations to be vali
