Polar coordinates: which is not the same?

The first option is not the same point in polar coordinates as (-3, 1.236). This proves that inverting the signs of r and θ does not generally give the same point in polar coordinates.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's think about the position of this point. As you can tell it lies in the 4th quadrant, on the 3rd circle of this polar graph.

Remember that polar coordinates is expressed as (r,θ) where r = distance from the positive x - axis, and theta = angle from the terminal side of the positive x - axis. Now there are two cases you can consider here when r > 0.

Given : (- 3, 1.236), (3,5.047), (3, - 7.518), (- 3, 1.906)

We know that :

7.518 - 1.236 = 6.282 = ( About ) 2π

5.047 + 1.236 = 6.283 = ( About ) 2π

1.236 + 1.906 = 3.142 = ( About ) 2π

Remember that sin and cos have a uniform period of 2π. All of the points are equivalent but the first option, as all of them ( but the first ) differ by 2π compared to the given point (3, - 1.236).
