Question

How do you convert `(0,8)` into polar coordinates?

Answer 1

`(8,pi/2)`

Explanation:

`"to convert from "color(blue)"cartesian to polar"`

`"that is "(x,y)to(r,theta)`

`"where r is the distance from the origin and "theta"`
`"the direction from the x-axis"`

`"since "(0,8)" is positioned on the y-axis then "`

`"then "r=8" and "theta=pi/2`
