Convert a rectangular equation to polar form

The video tutorial explains how to convert rectangular equations to polar form by substituting X and Y with their polar equivalents, R cosine Theta and R sine Theta, respectively. It discusses solving for R, factoring, and simplifying the equations. The tutorial also compares polar and rectangular forms, demonstrating that they can represent the same geometric shapes.

Explain the process of solving for R in the polar equation.
