These polar coordinates are in the form ( $\"r\"$ , $\"theta\"$ ), where $\"r\"$ is the
\n" ); document.write( "amplitude and $\"theta\"$ is the angle in a $\"2%2Api\"$ radian circle.
\n" ); document.write( " $\"theta+=+-2%2Api%2F3\"$
\n" ); document.write( "Note that $\"-pi%2F3\"$ would be $\"-60\"$ in degrees
\n" ); document.write( " $\"-2%2Api%2F3\"$ is $\"-120\"$ in degrees. That would put it in the 3rd quadrant,
\n" ); document.write( "making a $\"60\"$ degree angle with the horizontal axis. \n" ); document.write( "
