Polar form of the point (3,3)(3,3) is (3 sqrt2,45^0)(32,450)

Explanation:

Polar form of a point is expressed as(r,theta)(r,θ) where

r= sqrt(x^2+y^2) , tan theta=y/xr=x2+y2,tanθ=yx . The rectangular point

is x=3,y=3x=3,y=3 and is in first quadrant.

:.r= sqrt(x^2+y^2)=sqrt(3^2+3^2)=sqrt18=3 sqrt2 and

tan theta= y/x=3/3=1 ; tan 45=1 :. theta=45^0

Polar form of the point (3,3)is (3 sqrt2,45^0) [Ans]
