In mathematics, the polar coordinate system is a two-dimensional coordinate system in which each point on a plane is determined by a distance from a fixed point and an angle from a fixed direction. ...

Analytic Geometry: Polar Coordinates ... Through the pole O choose a ray (half a line) bounded by O. This is the polar axis. To any point P corresponds a pair of real numbers called its polar coordinates, r and theta, determined as follows.

For circular motion, it is possible (but quite inconvenient) to use the cartesian coordinates we have relied on during the previous sections. The math becomes much easier if we switch to polar coordinates.

Polar coordinates of a point P. ... One point P has many pairs of polar coordinates. If (r,t) is a pair of polar coordinates, (r, t + 2.k.pi) is also a pair of polar coordinates and additionally (- r, t + (2.k+1).pi ) is a pair of polar coordinates too.

Introduction to cartesian, polar, and celestial coordinates; part of an educational web site on astronomy, mechanics, and space ... One system ("polar coordinates") uses the length r of the line OP from the origin to P (i. e. the distance of P distance to the origin) and the angle that line makes with the x-axis.
