Question 1032927: Other pairs of coordinates that name the same polar coordinate: (3, 30)

(3, 30)

1. You may add or subtract any multiple of 360
to the angle q and get a new 
pair of polar coordinates for the same point.

(3, 390), (3, -330), etc.

2. Or you may multiply the radius r, in this case 3,
by -1 and add or subtract any ODD multiple of 180 and
get a new pair of polar coordinates for the same point


(-3,210), (-3,-150), etc.
