Polar Angles

CielBlade 10 years ago Acturally the one further from the original point comes out first. Shouldn't the right answer be -80 4 -83 11 -25 -99 12 -28 37 -100?

PRASHANTB1984 10 years ago which are the equipolar points you are referring to in this set? Distance is used as tiebreaker only for points with an equal polar angle.

bpowell 10 years ago I'm confused about this as well... when sorting the points this is what I'm getting for the answer. (-80, 4) has a distance of about 80 and (-83, 11) has a distance of about 83 so wouldn't (-80, 4) come first since it has a shorter distance from the origin?

drd8394 10 years ago Isn't the polar angle for 3,5 is 59. But it is given as 56 in the problem statement

PRASHANTB1984 10 years ago Yes, drd - we are finding a more accurate example for explaining Polar Angle. Thanks.

PRASHANTB1984 10 years ago Hello Drd - We have changed the polar angle example and the diagram. Thanks for pointing this out!
