u toPol
Function: Returns an equivalent polar form [r∠θ].
Syntax: toPol (Mat [,natural number] [
)
]
• This command can be used with a 1 × 2 or 2 × 1 matrix only.
• This command returns “r” when “natural number” is 1, and “
θ
” when “natural number” is
2.
• This command returns a polar form when you omit “natural number”.
