GreeneMath.com via YouTube

Overview

Learn how to convert lines between rectangular and polar forms, and graph them on the polar grid. Understand the formulas x = r cos θ and y = r sin θ, as well as strategies for graphing lines. The course covers converting standard form of a line to polar form, graphing lines on the polar grid, and converting lines from polar to rectangular form. The teaching method includes explanations, examples, and step-by-step instructions. This course is intended for students studying mathematics or anyone interested in understanding polar coordinates and graphing techniques.
