Cartesian to Polar Co-ordinates Converter
getcalc.com's rectangular to polar coordinates calculator is an online basic geometry tool to perform conversion between cartesian (x,y) and polar (r,θ) coordinates, in both US customary & metric (SI) units.
Steps to Find Rectangular to Polar Coordeinates
The step by step workout for how to find what is angle and radius of a polar co-ordinates.Workout :
step1 Address the formula, input parameters and values
x = 10
y = 5
step 2 Apply x and y values in Angle formuala
Angle θ = tan-1(y/x)
= tan-1(5/10)
= tan-1(2)
Angle θ = 26.5651 ˚
step 3 Find Radius using x and y values
Radius r = √x² + y²
= √(10)² + (5)²
= √100 + 25
= √125
Radius r = 11.1803
Rectangular - Polar Conversion & Formulas
Rectangular (x,y) - Polar (r,θ) Coordinate system are the two dimensional plane to determine the position of points. Rectangular - polar coordinates conversion is a method of converting point (x,y) on the cartesian plane to point (r,θ) in polar plane.
