(COORDINATE SYSTEMS)
1. Find the rectangular coordinates of the points whose polar coordinates are given.
(a) ( 6, π/6)
(b) ( 7, 2π/3)
(c) ( -6, -5π/6)
(d) ( 0, -π)
(e) ( 7, 17π/6)
(f) ( -5, 0)
2. In each part, a point is given in rectangular coordinates. Find two pairs of polar
coordinates for the point, one pair satisfying r ≥ 0 and 0 ≤ 2, and the second
pair satisfying r ≥ 0 and - 2 ≤ 0,
(a) (-5,0)
(b) (2 3 , -2)
(c) (0, -2)
(d) (-8,-8)
(e) (-3,3 3 )
(f) (1,1)
3. Use a calculating utility, to approximate the polar coordinates of the points whose
rectangular coordinates are given.
(a) (3,4)
(b) (6, -8)
(c) (-1, tan-1 1)
