A point is located in a polar coordinate system by the coordinates r = 1.0 m and θ = 50°. Find the x and y coordinates of this point, assuming the two coordinate systems have the same origin.
x=? m
y=? m
x=? m
y=? m
-
X= rcosθ and y= rsinθ
Plug in r and θ:
X= 1cos50= .643 m
Y= 1sin50= .766 m
Hoping this helps!
