Konsep sudut dan jari-jari sudah digunakan oleh manusia sejak zaman purba, paling tidak pada milenium pertama [[SM]]. Astronom dan astrolog [[Yunani]], [[Hipparchus]], (190–120 SM) menciptakan tabel fungsi [[:en:chord (geometry)|chord]] dengan menyatakan panjang chord bagi setiap sudut, dan ada rujukan mengenai penggunaan koordinat polar olehnya untuk menentukan posisi bintang-bintang.<ref name="milestones">{{Cite web| last = Friendly| first = Michael| title = Milestones in the History of Thematic Cartography, Statistical Graphics, and Data Visualization| url = http://www.math.yorku.ca/SCS/Gallery/milestone/sec4.html| accessdate = 2006-09-10}}</ref>

▲The actual term ''polar coordinates'' has been attributed to [[Gregorio Fontana]] and was used by 18th-century Italian writers. The term appeared in [[English language|English]] in [[George Peacock]]'s 1816 translation of [[Sylvestre François Lacroix|Lacroix]]'s ''Differential and Integral Calculus''.<ref>{{Cite web| last = Miller| first = Jeff| title = Earliest Known Uses of Some of the Words of Mathematics| url = http://members.aol.com/jeff570/p.html| accessdate = 2006-09-10}}</ref><ref>{{Cite book| last = Smith| first = David Eugene| title = History of Mathematics, Vol II| publisher = Ginn and Co.| year = 1925| location = Boston| pages = 324}}</ref> [[Alexis Clairaut]] was the first to think of polar coordinates in three dimensions, and [[Leonhard Euler]] was the first to actually develop them.<ref name="coolidge" />
