Please help me write two questions in Rectangular and Polar Forms. Write is Polar form -2x-6y=7 Write is Rectangular Form r=-12costheta

OpenStudy (ipwnbunnies):

Your rectangular coordinate doesn't make sense to me, but I can help with the polar one.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Please help, I don't understand how to rewrite it.

OpenStudy (ipwnbunnies):

To convert polar to rectangular, we use trigonometry! X: r*cos(theta) = Y: r*sin(theta) =

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yeah, but how do I use those? Which numbers do I use?

OpenStudy (ipwnbunnies):

Look at your polar coordinate. r = 12, the distance from the origin. Theta is the angle from the x-axis. I'll draw it.
