How to graph a polar point with a negative radius

The video tutorial explains how to graph a point given in polar coordinates by converting it to rectangular form. The instructor discusses the concept of negative radius and its implications on direction rather than distance. Using the unit circle, the tutorial demonstrates how to reflect points across axes and explains the relationship between vectors and negative radius. The lesson concludes with a recap of the key concepts covered.
