Pete,
The In[1] gives away the whole story. You have to first load the package
before using PolarPlot.
Needs["Graphics`Graphics`"]
PolarPlot[Sin[t], {t, 0, 2*Pi}]
now works.

I'm on Linux using Mathematica 5.0.1.0.
When I try to make a polar plot, no graphics is shown. This is what I see:
In[1]:= PolarPlot[Sin[t], {t, 0, 2*\[Pi]}]
Out[1]= PolarPlot[Sin[t],{t,0,2 \[Pi]}]
Mathematica simply repeats what I told it without displaying a graphic.
Even the
polar plot in the help browser topic doesn't work.
Any ideas why Mathematica isn't showing me polar plots? Do I need to
explicitly
display something?
Thanks,
Pete
