Question

How do you convert the polar coordinate ( 8.3433 , 1.3287 ) into cartesian coordinates?

Answer 1

x= `r cos theta`= 8.3433 cos 1.3287 = 2.00 (approx)
y= `r sin theta`=8.3433 sin 1.3287=8.1 (approx)

Explanation:

In the given polar coordinates r= 8.3433 and `theta`= 1.3287 radians.

Cartesean coordinates would be x= `r cos theta`= 8.3433 cos 1.3287 = 2.00 (approx)

y= `r sin theta`=8.3433 sin 1.3287=8.1 (approx)
