Question

Can someone please help me. Find all polar coordinates of point P where P = ordered pair 5 comma pi divided by 3.

Answer 1

@precal please I don't understand this

Answer 2

satellite already explained it

Answer 3

yes I know but I didn't understand the last part

Answer 4

@OOOPS

Answer 5

polar coordinates have many labels unlike (x,y) coordinates
so (2,3) where as polar coordinates because you can keep rotating and going across I think the polar line have different names

Answer 7

then next part is a little hard for me to explain here
but −5 means go you off in the opposite direction, so you would have to add π to the angle to switch is back
the other one will be
(−5,π3+(2n+1)π)

Answer 8

Satellite already gave you the solution, just read it again

Answer 9

why did he add pi though

Answer 10

the number stands for the length of the radius of the circle, in your case it is 5, got it?

Answer 11

yes is 5 the biggest or it can be bigger than 5?

Answer 12

number can be whatever, not just 5
Now, the angle,

Answer 13

ohh okay it's making more sense

Answer 14

when you sweep the hand of the angle, the direction show the positive number, for example
