How do you convert # x=y²-6y+11 # into polar form? Precalculus Polar Coordinates Converting Equations from Polar to Rectangular 1 Answer Bdub Sep 12, 2017 see below Explanation: Use the formulas #x=rcos theta, y=rsin theta# to substitute into the equation. That is, #x=y^2 -6y +11# #rcos theta = r^2 sin^2 theta -6rsin theta +11# #0=r^2sin^2 theta-6rsin theta-rcos theta +11# Answer link Related questions What is the polar equation of a horizontal line?
