How to obtain the scale and rotation angle from LogPolar transform

I'm trying to use LogPolar transform to obtain the scale and the rotation angle from two images. Below are two 300x300 sample images. The first rectangle is 100x100, and the second rectangle is 150x150, rotated by 45 degree.

The algorithm:

1. Convert both images to LogPolar.
2. Find the translational shift using Phase Correlation.
3. Convert the translational shift to scale and rotation angle (how to do this?).

My code:

#include <opencv2/imgproc/imgproc.hpp>
#include <opencv2/imgproc/imgproc_c.h>
#include <opencv2/highgui/highgui.hpp>
#include <iostream>

int main()
{
    cv::Mat a = cv::imread("rect1.png", 0);
    cv::Mat b = cv::imread("rect2.png", 0);
    if (a.empty() || b.empty())
        return -1;

    cv::imshow("a", a);
    cv::imshow("b", b);

    cv::Mat pa = cv::Mat::zeros(a.size(), CV_8UC1);
    cv::Mat pb = cv::Mat::zeros(b.size(), CV_8UC1);
    IplImage ipl_a = a, ipl_pa = pa;
    IplImage ipl_b = b, ipl_pb = pb;
    cvLogPolar(&ipl_a, &ipl_pa, cvPoint2D32f(a.cols >> 1, a.rows >> 1), 40);
    cvLogPolar(&ipl_b, &ipl_pb, cvPoint2D32f(b.cols >> 1, b.rows >> 1), 40);

    cv::imshow("logpolar a", pa);
    cv::imshow("logpolar b", pb);

    cv::Mat pa_64f, pb_64f;
    pa.convertTo(pa_64f, CV_64F);
    pb.convertTo(pb_64f, CV_64F);

    cv::Point2d pt = cv::phaseCorrelate(pa_64f, pb_64f);

    std::cout << "Shift = " << pt 
              << "Rotation = " << cv::format("%.2f", pt.y*180/(a.cols >> 1)) 
              << std::endl;

    cv::waitKey(0);

    return 0;
}
