Cartesian coordinate system on a plane is choosen by choosing the origin (point o) and axis (two ordered lines perpendicular to each other and meeting at origin point).
With polar coordinates this isn't true. The cartesian coordinates can be obtained from the distance. With polar coordinates this isn't true. (our cartesian to polar calculator assumes that the origin of the cartesian system.
