The letter P appears in the left most display segment. This
is the argument or length of the vector. See the diagram
for clarification.
The letter A appears in the second axis display. This refers
to the angle of the co-ordinates. The angle is displayed to
three decimal places.
As the plane X,Y was selected the Z display remains
unchanged.
Pressing the Polar key again returns the display to
Cartesian co-ordinates.
NOTE: Pressing the [ Xo ] key in Polar mode will
reset the argument to zero, i.e. X and Y both
zero in cartesian co-ordinates.
