Answer

(a) See the graph. (b) $(6,\frac{\pi}{6})$ (c) $(-6,\frac{7\pi}{6})$

Work Step by Step

(a) $x\gt0$ and $y\gt0$. The point lies in Quadrant I. $r^2=x^2+y^2$ $r^2=(3\sqrt 3)^2+3^2=36$ $r=±6$ (b) $r=6$ $tan~θ=\frac{y}{x}=\frac{3}{3\sqrt 3}=\frac{\sqrt 3}{3}$ $θ=\frac{\pi}{6}$ (c) $r=-6$ $tan~θ=\frac{y}{x}=\frac{3}{3\sqrt 3}=\frac{\sqrt 3}{3}$ $θ=\frac{\pi}{6}+\pi=\frac{7\pi}{6}$
