+* Coordinate transformations
+\begin{align*}
+x &= r \cos\theta\\
+y &= r \sin\theta
+\end{align*}
+
+* Local unit vectors
+\begin{align*}
+\unitv{r} &= \cos\theta \unitv{x} + \sin\theta \unitv{y}\\
+\unitv{\theta} &= -\sin\theta \unitv{x} + \cos\theta \unitv{y}
+\end{align*}
+
+* Kinematic in polar coordinates
+** Time derivatives of the local unit vectors
+\begin{align*}
+\deriv{\unitv{r}}{t} &= \dot{\theta}\unitv{\theta}\\
+\deriv{\unitv{\theta}}{t} &= -\dot{\theta}\unitv{r}
+\end{align*}
+
+** Position vector and its time derivatives
+\begin{align*}
+\bm{r} &= r\unitv{r}\\
+\bm{v} &= \dot{r}\unitv{r} + r\dot\theta\unitv{\theta}\\
+\bm{a} &= \left(\ddot{r} - r\dot\theta^2\right)\unitv{r}
++ \left(2\dot{r}\dot\theta + r\ddot\theta\right)\unitv{\theta}
+\end{align*}
