How do I graph a polar equation in Excel?
 
I'm trying to do some polar equations in Excel, and I'm not sure on how, or
if I can do it. Help please?

You'll need to calculate
X=R*COS(THETA)
Y=R*SIN(THETA)
(converting degrees to radians if necessary)
and plot Y against X in an XY graph.

You can also use a radar chart to mimic a polar plot. See an example of how
to do this here
