Howdy folks

EE freshman here, just a few basic questions.

Phase shift as used in the cartesian to polar conversion uses the complement of the angle in the second and third quadrants (ie when the real part is negative). How best to do this?

Where is Hz and Hza originally defined? I can't see it in worksheet options>unit system

How best to implement functions like

poltotim.gif

poltocar.gif

In fact, is the angle symbol even in mathcad? I can't find it.

Thanks much in advance

Joe

So first you must define this function and then this calculation will occur?

Thanks again

In older versions, the attached demonstrates a special function that you must add to your worksheet (right hand side of the worksheet). Tou can copy & paste the example and use what you require.

I hope this helps.
