jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

The basic polar point is this (r, theta) r is the radius theta is the angle |dw:1406430854432:dw|

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

|dw:1406430865963:dw| r is the distance from the origin (ie the pole) to the terminal point of the segment

Draw in the following segments to make a right triangle (r is the hypotenuse) |dw:1406430947031:dw|

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

the legs of this right triangle are exactly the x,y components of the endpoint |dw:1406431002884:dw| that means the vertical leg is y the horizontal leg is x
