The point whose Cartesian coordinates are (-3, -3) has the polar coordinates R = 3 sqrt(2), Θ = -0.75pi.
the radius vector; and the vectorial angle the radius vector; and the vectorial angle
The equivalent of the x-axis
Polar Co-ordinates are non-Cartesian co-ordinates. Since most of the Graphics Package do not support non-Cartesian co-ordinates,Polar co-ordinates should be converted to Cartesian form.
r=sqrt(x2+y2) and θ=arctan(y/x) are useful formulae here. if x=5 and y=-12, r=13 and θ=arctan(-12/5)=-1.18 rectangular: (5,-12) ; polar: (13,-1.18)

False
absolute relative and polar coordinates definition
If the polar coordinates of a point P are (r,a) then the rectangular coordinates of P are x = rcos(a) and y = rsin(a).
Polar bears live only at the North Pole, or, more correctly, in the Arctic.
The point whose Cartesian coordinates are (2, 0) has the polar coordinates R = 2, Θ = 0 .
There isn't a polar plateau as such, at the North Pole. It is found at the South Pole.
The point whose Cartesian coordinates are (-3, -3) has the polar coordinates R = 3 sqrt(2), Θ = -0.75pi.

From "pole" you can make the adjective "polar".
(-4,0)
The adjective for pole is polar. It can be used to say two things are polar opposites of one another.
