display values in polar plot (matlab)

Question

I am a newbie in MATLAB and I have to display values in polar plot. My values are like this

values1 = [1.424; 1.425; 1.411; 1.555; 1.023; 1.534]; % 100 values...
values2 = [120.323; 112.414; 114.412; 120.333; 120.665; 121.888]; % 100 values...

I figured out how to draw a plain circle but I don't know how to affect the line with those values (and draw the other one).

t = 0 : 2*pi/100 : 2*pi; 
r = (power(sin(t),2) + power(cos(t),2));
polar(t,r)

I am expecting something like this (just found image for illustration). How can I do it? Thank you.

@excaza: I don't need to add text. I edited my post for better understanding. — user3376620

I don't understand what you're asking. Do you just want to plot your data? — sco1

What is polar(t, r) with your actual data not doing that you're expecting? — sco1

Sorry, I am woring with MATLAB for the first time. My code draws only nice circle and I don't know how to insert the data (variables above) into the plot. — user3376620

Are you looking for something like this:

values1 = normrnd(100,10,1,101); % 101 values...
values2 = normrnd(100,10,1,101); % 101 values...
t = 0 : 2*pi/100 : 2*pi; 

figure,
polar(t,values1)
hold on
polar(t,values2)
hold off

For more information about the hold command check the Matlab help.
