Question

How many different sets of polar coordinates can be given for a point, within one rotation? I thought it was infinite, but the given options are 1, 2, 3, and 4.

Answer 1

Answer:

the answer is 4

Step-by-step explanation:

so 1 rotation is like a circle 1 unit circle requires 4 quadrant to be in this is the most simplified i can get

Answer 2

Answer:

Solution : 4

Step-by-step explanation:

The question asks us how many polar coordinates are possible for one rotation. For one rotation there will be 4 polar coordinates, one present in each quadrant such that,

( r, theta ), ( r, theta ), ( - r, theta ), ( - r, theta )

Respectively if theta was q say,

( r, q ), ( r, - q ), ( - r, q ), ( - r, -q )

Therefore there are 4 sets of polar coordinates for one rotation, in each of the 4 quadrants.
