Investigation 4: Converting Between Rectangular Form and Polar Form

Step E
  • You should see that point P, on the polar grid, lies on the circle with radius 5, which is equal to the length calculated for OP in Step C.
  • POQ is still in the same position and, therefore, is 53.1°.
  • Use these two pieces of information to help you determine the polar coordinates of point P.
