Polar Coordinates Distance Formula
:
In order to calculate the distance from two points in polar coordinates, we use the polar coordinates distance formula. In order to derive the polar coordinates distance formula, we use the law of cosines. We can also use the polar coordinates distance formula to help us come up with the polar equation for a circle centered at the origin.
