Converting between polar and Cartesian coordinates
The polar coordinates r and ϕ can be converted to the Cartesian coordinates x and y by using the trigonometric functions sine and cosine:
The Cartesian coordinates x and y can be converted to polar coordinates r and ϕ with r ≥ 0 and ϕ in the interval (−π, π] by:
- (as in the Pythagorean theorem or the Euclidean norm), and
- ,
where atan2 is a common variation on the arctangent function defined as
The value of ϕ above is the principal value of the complex number function arg applied to x+iy. An angle in the range [0, 2π) may be obtained by adding 2π to the value in case it is negative.
Polar equation of a curve
The equation defining an algebraic curve expressed in polar coordinates is known as a polar equation. In many cases, such an equation can simply be specified by defining r as a function of ϕ. The resulting curve then consists of points of the form (r(ϕ), ϕ) and can be regarded as the graph of the polar function r.
Different forms of symmetry can be deduced from the equation of a polar function r. If r(−ϕ) = r(ϕ) the curve will be symmetrical about the horizontal (0°/180°) ray, if r(π − ϕ) = r(ϕ) it will be symmetric about the vertical (90°/270°) ray, and if r(ϕ − α) = r(ϕ) it will be rotationally symmetric by α counterclockwise about the pole.
Because of the circular nature of the polar coordinate system, many curves can be described by a rather simple polar equation, whereas their Cartesian form is much more intricate. Among the best known of these curves are the polar rose, Archimedean spiral, lemniscate, limaçon, and cardioid.
For the circle, line, and polar rose below, it is understood that there are no restrictions on the domain and range of the curve.
Circle
The general equation for a circle with a center at (r0, ) and radius a is
This can be simplified in various ways, to conform to more specific cases, such as the equation
for a circle with a center at the pole and radius a.
When r0 = a, or when the origin lies on the circle, the equation becomes
- .
In the general case, the equation can be solved for r, giving
- ,
the solution with a minus sign in front of the square root gives the same curve.
Line
Radial lines (those running through the pole) are represented by the equation
- ,
where ɣ is the angle of elevation of the line; that is, ɣ = arctan m where m is the slope of the line in the Cartesian coordinate system. The non-radial line that crosses the radial line ϕ = ɣ perpendicularly at the point (r0, ɣ) has the equation
Otherwise stated (r0, ɣ) is the point in which the tangent intersects the imaginary circle of radius r0.
Polar rose
A polar rose is a famous mathematical curve that looks like a petaled flower, and that can be expressed as a simple polar equation,
for any constant ɣ0 (including 0). If k is an integer, these equations will produce a k-petaled rose if k is odd, or a 2k-petaled rose if k is even. If k is rational but not an integer, a rose-like shape may form but with overlapping petals. Note that these equations never define a rose with 2, 6, 10, 14, etc. petals. The variable a represents the length of the petals of the rose.
Archimedean spiral
The Archimedean spiral is a famous spiral that was discovered by Archimedes, which can also be expressed as a simple polar equation. It is represented by the equation
Changing the parameter a will turn the spiral, while b controls the distance between the arms, which for a given spiral is always constant. The Archimedean spiral has two arms, one for ϕ > 0 and one for ϕ < 0. The two arms are smoothly connected at the pole. Taking the mirror image of one arm across the 90°/270° line will yield the other arm. This curve is notable as one of the first curves, after the conic sections, to be described in a mathematical treatise, and as being a prime example of a curve that is best defined by a polar equation.
Conic sections
A conic section with one focus on the pole and the other somewhere on the 0° ray (so that the conic's major axis lies along the polar axis) is given by:
where e is the eccentricity and is the semi-latus rectum (the perpendicular distance at a focus from the major axis to the curve). If e > 1, this equation defines a hyperbola; if e = 1, it defines a parabola; and if e < 1, it defines an ellipse. The special case e = 0 of the latter results in a circle of radius .
Intersection of two polar curves
The graphs of two polar functions and have possible intersections in 3 cases:
- In the origin if the equations and have at least one solution each.
- All the points where are the solutions to the equation .
- All the points where are the solutions to the equation where is an integer.
Complex numbers
Every complex number can be represented as a point in the complex plane, and can therefore be expressed by specifying either the point's Cartesian coordinates (called rectangular or Cartesian form) or the point's polar coordinates (called polar form). The complex number z can be represented in rectangular form as
where i is the imaginary unit, or can alternatively be written in polar form (via the conversion formulae given above) as
and from there as
where e is Euler's number, which are equivalent as shown by Euler's formula. (Note that this formula, like all those involving exponentials of angles, assumes that the angle ϕ is expressed in radians.) To convert between the rectangular and polar forms of a complex number, the conversion formulae given above can be used.
For the operations of multiplication, division, and exponentiation of complex numbers, it is generally much simpler to work with complex numbers expressed in polar form rather than rectangular form. From the laws of exponentiation:

- Division:

Calculus
Calculus can be applied to equations expressed in polar coordinates.
The angular coordinate ϕ is expressed in radians throughout this section, which is the conventional choice when doing calculus.
Differential calculus
Using x = r cos ϕ and y = r sin ϕ , one can derive a relationship between derivatives in Cartesian and polar coordinates. For a given function, u(x,y), it follows that (by computing its total derivatives)
or
Hence, we have the following formulae:
Using the inverse coordinates transformation, an analogous reciprocal relationship can be derived between the derivatives. Given a function u(r,ϕ), it follows that
or
Hence, we have the following formulae:
To find the Cartesian slope of the tangent line to a polar curve r(ϕ) at any given point, the curve is first expressed as a system of parametric equations.
Differentiating both equations with respect to ϕ yields
Dividing the second equation by the first yields the Cartesian slope of the tangent line to the curve at the point (r(ϕ), ϕ):
For other useful formulas including divergence, gradient, and Laplacian in polar coordinates, see curvilinear coordinates.
Integral calculus (arc length)
The arc length (length of a line segment) defined by a polar function is found by the integration over the curve r(ϕ). Let L denote this length along the curve starting from points A through to point B, where these points correspond to ϕ = a and ϕ = b such that 0 < b − a < 2π. The length of L is given by the following integral
Integral calculus (area)
Let R denote the region enclosed by a curve r(ϕ) and the rays ϕ = a and ϕ = b, where 0 < b − a ≤ 2π. Then, the area of R is
This result can be found as follows. First, the interval is divided into n subintervals, where n is an arbitrary positive integer. Thus Δϕ, the length of each subinterval, is equal to b − a (the total length of the interval), divided by n, the number of subintervals. For each subinterval i = 1, 2, …, n, let ϕi be the midpoint of the subinterval, and construct a sector with the center at the pole, radius r(ϕi), central angle Δϕ and arc length r(ϕi)Δϕ. The area of each constructed sector is therefore equal to
Hence, the total area of all of the sectors is
As the number of subintervals n is increased, the approximation of the area continues to improve. In the limit as n → ∞, the sum becomes the Riemann sum for the above integral.
A mechanical device that computes area integrals is the planimeter, which measures the area of plane figures by tracing them out: this replicates integration in polar coordinates by adding a joint so that the 2-element linkage effects Green's theorem, converting the quadratic polar integral to a linear integral.
Generalization
Using Cartesian coordinates, an infinitesimal area element can be calculated as dA = dx dy. The substitution rule for multiple integrals states that, when using other coordinates, the Jacobian determinant of the coordinate conversion formula has to be considered:
Hence, an area element in polar coordinates can be written as
Now, a function, that is given in polar coordinates, can be integrated as follows:
Here, R is the same region as above, namely, the region enclosed by a curve r(ϕ) and the rays ϕ = a and ϕ = b.
The formula for the area of R mentioned above is retrieved by taking f identically equal to 1. A more surprising application of this result yields the Gaussian integral
Vector calculus
Vector calculus can also be applied to polar coordinates. For a planar motion, let be the position vector (rcos(ϕ), rsin(ϕ)), with r and ϕ depending on time t.
We define the unit vectors
in the direction of r and
in the plane of the motion perpendicular to the radial direction, where is a unit vector normal to the plane of the motion.
Then
Centrifugal and Coriolis terms
See also: Mechanics of planar particle motion and Centrifugal force (rotating reference frame)The term is sometimes referred to as the centrifugal term, and the term as the Coriolis term. For example, see Shankar. Although these equations bear some resemblance in form to the centrifugal and Coriolis effects found in rotating reference frames, nonetheless these are not the same things. For example, the physical centrifugal and Coriolis forces appear only in non-inertial frames of reference. In contrast, these terms, that appear when acceleration is expressed in polar coordinates, are a mathematical consequence of differentiation; these terms appear wherever polar coordinates are used. In particular, these terms appear even when polar coordinates are used in inertial frames of reference, where the physical centrifugal and Coriolis forces never appear.
Co-rotating frame
For a particle in planar motion, one approach to attaching physical significance to these terms is based on the concept of an instantaneous co-rotating frame of reference. To define a co-rotating frame, first an origin is selected from which the distance r(t) to the particle is defined. An axis of rotation is set up that is perpendicular to the plane of motion of the particle, and passing through this origin. Then, at the selected moment t, the rate of rotation of the co-rotating frame Ω is made to match the rate of rotation of the particle about this axis, dϕ/dt. Next, the terms in the acceleration in the inertial frame are related to those in the co-rotating frame. Let the location of the particle in the inertial frame be (r(t), ϕ(t)), and in the co-rotating frame be (r(t), ϕ′(t)). Because the co-rotating frame rotates at the same rate as the particle, dϕ′/dt = 0. The fictitious centrifugal force in the co-rotating frame is mrΩ, radially outward. The velocity of the particle in the co-rotating frame also is radially outward, because dϕ′/dt = 0. The fictitious Coriolis force therefore has a value −2m(dr/dt)Ω, pointed in the direction of increasing ϕ only. Thus, using these forces in Newton's second law we find:
where over dots represent time differentiations, and F is the net real force (as opposed to the fictitious forces). In terms of components, this vector equation becomes:
which can be compared to the equations for the inertial frame:
This comparison, plus the recognition that by the definition of the co-rotating frame at time t it has a rate of rotation Ω = dϕ/dt, shows that we can interpret the terms in the acceleration (multiplied by the mass of the particle) as found in the inertial frame as the negative of the centrifugal and Coriolis forces that would be seen in the instantaneous, non-inertial co-rotating frame.
For general motion of a particle (as opposed to simple circular motion), the centrifugal and Coriolis forces in a particle's frame of reference commonly are referred to the instantaneous osculating circle of its motion, not to a fixed center of polar coordinates. For more detail, see centripetal force.
Connection to spherical and cylindrical coordinates
The polar coordinate system is extended into three dimensions with two different coordinate systems, the cylindrical and spherical coordinate system.
Applications
Polar coordinates are two-dimensional and thus they can be used only where point positions lie on a single two-dimensional plane. They are most appropriate in any context where the phenomenon being considered is inherently tied to direction and length from a center point. For instance, the examples above show how elementary polar equations suffice to define curves—such as the Archimedean spiral—whose equation in the Cartesian coordinate system would be much more intricate. Moreover, many physical systems—such as those concerned with bodies moving around a central point or with phenomena originating from a central point—are simpler and more intuitive to model using polar coordinates. The initial motivation for the introduction of the polar system was the study of circular and orbital motion.
Position and navigation
Polar coordinates are used often in navigation as the destination or direction of travel can be given as an angle and distance from the object being considered. For instance, aircraft use a slightly modified version of the polar coordinates for navigation. In this system, the one generally used for any sort of navigation, the 0° ray is generally called heading 360, and the angles continue in a clockwise direction, rather than counterclockwise, as in the mathematical system. Heading 360 corresponds to magnetic north, while headings 90, 180, and 270 correspond to magnetic east, south, and west, respectively. Thus, an aircraft traveling 5 nautical miles due east will be traveling 5 units at heading 90 (read zero-niner-zero by air traffic control).
Modeling
Systems displaying radial symmetry provide natural settings for the polar coordinate system, with the central point acting as the pole. A prime example of this usage is the groundwater flow equation when applied to radially symmetric wells. Systems with a radial force are also good candidates for the use of the polar coordinate system. These systems include gravitational fields, which obey the inverse-square law, as well as systems with point sources, such as radio antennas.
Radially asymmetric systems may also be modeled with polar coordinates. For example, a microphone's pickup pattern illustrates its proportional response to an incoming sound from a given direction, and these patterns can be represented as polar curves. The curve for a standard cardioid microphone, the most common unidirectional microphone, can be represented as r = 0.5 + 0.5sin(ϕ) at its target design frequency. The pattern shifts toward omnidirectionality at lower frequencies.
