How do I combine the polar plot and cartesian coordinate together?

I want to draw and hold the radiation pattern from polar plot on the x,y coordinate. Is it possible?

First use polar() to draw the polar plot you want. Note this is the older polar() not the newer polarplot(). Then "hold on" and draw the cartesian points you want. Then you can use uistack() to move the cartesian points to "below" the polar points.
Do not try to draw the cartesian first and then the polar(): if you do that then polar() will not draw the radii and angle markings.

Convert your polar coordinates to Cartesian using pol2cart and plot.

Thank you! I think my question isn't clear. but if i convert by using pol2cart the shape will change, I want to hold the polar shape on the Cartesian coordinate. any suggestion?
