9.6 Polar Coordinates
Digital Lesson
One way to give someone directions is to tell them to go three blocks East and five blocks South.
Another way to give directions is to point and say “Go a half mile in that direction.”
Polar graphing is like the second method of giving directions. Each point is determined by a distance and an angle.
Initial ray
r A polar coordinate pair
determines the location of a point.

9.6 Polar Coordinates

The polar coordinate system is formed by fixing a point, O, which is the pole (or origin).
= directed angle Polar axis
r = directed dista
nce
OPole (Origin)
The polar axis is the ray constructed from O.
Each point P in the plane can be assigned polar coordinates (r, ).
P = (r, )
r is the directed distance from O to P.
is the directed angle (counterclockwise) from the polar axis to OP.

The relationship between rectangular and polar coordinates is as follows.
The point (x, y) lies on a circle of radius r, therefore,
r2 = x2 + y2.
