Answer:

All polar coordinates of point P are
(4,-(\pi)/(3)+2n\pi) and
(-4,-(\pi)/(3)+(2n+1)\pi), where n is any integer value.

Explanation:

If a the polar coordinates of a point are
(r,\theta), then all the polar coordinates of that point are defined as


(r,\theta+2n\pi)


(-r,\theta+(2n+1)\pi)

where, n∈Z.

Consider the given point


P=(4,-(\pi)/(3))

We need to find tall polar coordinates of point P.

Here, r=4 and
\theta=-(\pi)/(3)

So, all the polar coordinates of point P are


P=(4,-(\pi)/(3)+2n\pi)


P=(-4,-(\pi)/(3)+(2n+1)\pi)

Answer:

The polar coordinates of point P are
(4,-(\pi)/(3)+2n\pi) and
(-4,-(\pi)/(3)+(2n+1)\pi).

Explanation:

The given point is


P=(4,-(\pi)/(3))

If a point is defined as P(r,θ), then all polar coordinates are


P(r,\theta)=(r,\theta+2n\pi)


P(r,\theta)=(-r,\theta+(2n+1)\pi)

Where, θ is in radian and n is an integer.

The polar coordinates of point P are


P(4,-(\pi)/(3))=(4,-(\pi)/(3)+2n\pi)


P(4,-(\pi)/(3))=(-4,-(\pi)/(3)+(2n+1)\pi)

Therefore the polar coordinates of point P are
(4,-(\pi)/(3)+2n\pi) and
(-4,-(\pi)/(3)+(2n+1)\pi).
