Default How do I graph in polar coordinates in Excel?

Will I need to buy software, or is there a way to do it with standard excel?

Default How do I graph in polar coordinates in Excel?

Can you write formulas?

X = R * cos(theta)
Y = R * sin(theta)

R and theta are in tow columns, X and Y are in the next two columns. Plot X
and Y.
