Answer:
The polar coordinate of
is
.
Explanation:
Given a point in rectangular form, that is
, its polar form is defined by:
(1)
Where:
- Norm, measured in meters.
- Direction, measured in sexagesimal degrees.
The norm of the point is determined by Pythagorean Theorem:
(2)
And direction is calculated by following trigonometric relation:
(3)
If we know that
and
, then the components of coordinates in polar form is:


Since
and
, direction is located at 3rd Quadrant. Given that tangent function has a period of 180º, we find direction by using this formula:


The polar coordinate of
is
.
