Hi folks. I am trying to convert a rectangular complex number to a polar one.

polar(1+2i)

doesnt return a value, am I on the right track and should it return a value?

Thank, you

Hi Mickpc,

Even much more easy, with version 5447 (2013 11 25),

Enter your rectangular like
7+9*i
then press [SHIFT] then [x] //where the angle symbol <) is, and will show

11.40...<)52.12... // in degrees

or

11.40...<).90... // in radians

It help me much and I hope to You too.
best regards!!
