Use a graphing utility to find own set of polar coordinates
Use a graphing utility to find own set of polar coordinates (r > 0. 0 lessthanorequalto theta
Solution
r = sqrt( (-5/9)^2 + (-2/3)^2 )
= sqrt(25/81 +4/9)
= sqrt(25 +36)/81
= sqrt(61)/9
= 0.868
theta = pi + tan^-1(2/3 /5/9) = 6/5
= pi +tan^-1(6/5)
= pi +0.876
= 4.017 radians
