Question

Another representation, in polar coordinates, of the point (2,pi/6) is (___,7pi/6).

Answer 1

use the formulas r = sqroot(a^2+b^2) and tan (theta) = b/a .

Plug in a = 2 and b = pi/6

Good luck! :)

Answer 2

So we're facing this way, at an angle of pi/6

Answer 3

If we move outward a distance of 2, it puts us here,

Answer 4

If we add pi to our angle, we're over here, at 7pi/6.
Facing this direction.
Hmm how would we get to that same point?
Should we move forward 2 units or no?
