This command works in CAS View only.
- ToPolar[ <Vector> ]
- Transforms a vector into its polar coordinates.
- Example:
ToPolar[{1, sqrt(3)}]yields(2; \frac{\pi}{3}), the polar coordinates of (1, \sqrt{3}).
- ToPolar[ <Complex Number> ]
- Transforms a complex number into its polar coordinates.
- Example:
ToPolar[1 + sqrt(3) * ί]yields(2; \frac{\pi}{3}), the polar coordinates of 1 + \sqrt{3} * ί.
Note:
- The complex ί is obtained by pressing ALT + i.
- See also ToComplex Command, ToExponential Command and ToPoint Command.
