We know the relations

x=rcostheta and y =rsintheta

Again x^2+y^2=r^2

where r and theta are the polar coordinate of a point having rectangular coordinate (x,y)

The given equation in rectanglar form is

sqrt(x^2+y^2)=6x+7y-x^2y-2xy

=>sqrt(r^2)=6rcostheta+7rsintheta-r^3cos^2thetasintheta-2r^2costhetasintheta

=>r=6rcostheta+7rsintheta-r^3cos^2thetasintheta-r^2sin2theta

=>6costheta+7sintheta-r^2cos^2thetasintheta-rsin2theta=1

This is the polar form of the given equation.
