Question

Find rectangular coordinates for each point with the given coordinates.

Answer 1

Step 1: Write out the formula for changing polar coordinates to Cartesian coordinates

$\begin{gathered} \text{ Given a polar coordinate of a point, }(r,\theta),\text{ then the Cartesian coordinate of the point is} \\ (r\cos \theta,r\sin \theta) \end{gathered}$

Step 2: Write out the given values and find the Cartesian coordinate

$r=10,\theta=52^0$
