Polar Coordinates Calculator

This polar coordinates calculator helps you convert the cartesian to polar coordinates and the polar to cartesian coordinates.

To calculate cartesian to polar coordinates, enter the value of x and y.

r = √ ( x2 + y2 ) θ = tan-1 ( y / x )

To calculate polar to cartesian coordinates, enter the value of r and θ (degrees).

x = r × cos( θ ) y = r × sin( θ )

You might also want to convert polar to rectangular and vice versa. You can also find the related rate easily.
