Question

How do you convert `(0, 2)` to polar form?

Answer 1

Rectangular form: `(x,y)=(0,2)color(white)("X")rarrcolor(white)("X")` Polar form: `(r,theta)=(2,pi/2)`

Explanation:

Since (in rectangular form) `x=0` and `y > 0`,
the point is on the positive Y-axis `rarr theta = pi/2`

Since the point `(0,2)` is a distance of `2` from the origin,
the radius is `2`
