Complex number notation - transform from rectangular to polar - mlpalacios8 - 10-31-2014 07:56 AM Hello Simple question here. How do I transform a complex number from the rectangular a+i*b notation to the r<¢ notation (polar notation) in the HP Prime CAS. [/code] Thanks RE: Complex number notation - transform from rectangular to polar - DrD - 10-31-2014 08:51 AM Only in Home mode: enter coordinates then use [shift] [X] to switch between the coordinate type (in the history screen). Shift X is the angle sign. -Dale- RE: Complex number notation - transform from rectangular to polar - Gilles - 10-31-2014 10:36 AM Shift X is also fine to enter polar number : 100 Shift X 45 RE: Complex number notation - transform from rectangular to polar - parisse - 10-31-2014 10:48 AM polar_coordinates RE: Complex number notation - transform from rectangular to polar - mlpalacios8 - 10-31-2014 11:05 PM Many thanks for the responses The CAS command polar_coordinates worked like a charm!
