Question
Plot the point that has the given polar coordinates. Then give two other polar coordinate representations of the point, one with $r<0$ and the other with $r>0$.$$(3, \pi / 2)$$
Step 1
The angle $\pi / 2$ is equivalent to 90 degrees, so we draw a line from the origin at an angle of 90 degrees. We then move along this line a distance of 3 units from the origin to plot our point. Show more…
