# Math Help - TI-86: Inputing Vectors in Polar form

1. ## TI-86: Inputing Vectors in Polar form

I need to input and store vectors in polar form (with a magnitude and angle). I know how to input vectors in rectangular form and convert to polar form, but for some reason, I can't seem to figure out how to put them in in polar form. Any help? Thanks.

The only possibility I know is:

Mode - Graph - choose Polar

Now you are able to put in vectors in polar form at the y= - editor.
