| 31. | The hypot function is often used together with the atan2 function to convert from polar coordinates:
|
| 32. | They are central to polar coordinates and trigonometry.
|
| 33. | That is convert polar coordinates to Cartesian coordinates.
|
| 34. | Usually this is done in spherical polar coordinates:
|
| 35. | The radar uses a polar coordinate system.
|
| 36. | A handful of machines use polar coordinates instead, usually machines optimised to print objects with circular symmetry.
|
| 37. | There are various accounts of the introduction of polar coordinates as part of a formal coordinate system.
|
| 38. | This is the equation in polar coordinates for a conic section with origin in a focal point.
|
| 39. | Fig . 5 shows luminance and contrast versus " viewing direction " in a polar coordinate system.
|
| 40. | Convert that point back to polar coordinates.
