Rectangular-Polar Coordinate Conversion

Rectangular Polar Coordinates
Coordinates (Rec) (Pol)

Coordinate conversion can be performed in the COMP and
STAT calculation modes.

Converting to Polar Coordinates (Pol)

Pol(X,Y) X: Specifies the rectangular coordinate X value
Y: Specifies the rectangular coordinate Y value
• Calculation result is displayed using the range of -180

°

<

≤ 180

°

• Calculation result is displayed using the calculator’s

default angle unit.

• Calculation result r is assigned to variable X, while y is

assigned to Y.

Converting to Rectangular Coordinates (Rec)

Rec(r, ) r : Specifies r value of polar coordinate

: Specifies value of polar coordinate

• Input value is treated as an angle value, in accordance

with the calculator’s default angle unit setting.

• Calculation result x is assigned to variable X, while is

assigned to Y.

• If you perform coordinate conversion inside of an

expression instead of a stand-alone operation, the
calculation is performed using the only first value (either
the r-value or the X-value) produced by the conversion.
