Work Step by Step

Conversion formulas: $\left\{\begin{array}{ll} (x,y)=(r\cos\theta,r\sin\theta) & \\ r^{2}=x^{2}+y^{2}, & \tan\theta=\frac{y}{x} \end{array}\right.$ $r$ is the distance of the point from the pole. $r=1$ defines all points at a distance of 1 unit from the pole. $r=2$ defines all points at a distance of 2 units from the pole. So, $1 \leq r \leq 2$ describes all points on or between these circles. In Cartesian coordinates, the region is between the circles $x^{2}+y^{2} = 1$ and $x^{2}+y^{2} = 4$
