- A line making an angle of with the polar axis.
- Polar axis.
- A spiral starting at the pole going in the counterclockwise direction.
- A line perpendicular to the polar axis and 2 units away from the pole.
- A line parallel to the polar axis and 3 units away from the pole.
- The annular space between two concentric circles centered at the pole with radii and units.
- A circle of radius units centered at a point on the polar axis units away from the pole.
