im sorry i meant the 0 is θ
OpenStudy (amistre64):
why the +pi ? to swing it to the 2nd quad ok
OpenStudy (amistre64):
knowing the "r" value, we could have done arccos (x/r) as well
OpenStudy (anonymous):
I added it because x < 0

-1/6 will give out a negative answer

you work look fine to me
OpenStudy (anonymous):
so my answer is correct?
OpenStudy (amistre64):
yes; the polar form is a radius of sqrt(37) at about a 2.9 radian measure
OpenStudy (amistre64):
or .... i have to wonder a little about the angle at the moment
OpenStudy (anonymous):
ok

we dont want to put it in the second quadrant do we?
OpenStudy (amistre64):
2pi + arctan(-1/6) sounds better to me
OpenStudy (anonymous):
ok
OpenStudy (amistre64):
we have a -0.165 radian; which is equivalent to 2pi - 0.165 to fit it between 0 adn 2pi
OpenStudy (amistre64):
trying to define it in the 2nd quadrant is just a bad idea :) we dont want to move it from where it is at, we just want to define it

so the radian is 2.9?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
ok
