Question
Find the Cartesian co-ordinates of point whose polar co-ordinates are `(4, pi/3)`
Advertisements
Solution
(r, θ) = `(4, pi/3)`
Using x = r cos θ and y = r sin θ, where (x, y) are the required Cartesian co-ordinates, we get
x = `4 cos (pi/3)` and y = `4 sin (pi/3)`
∴ x = `4(1/2)` and y = `4(sqrt(3)/2)`
∴ x = 2 and y = `2sqrt(3)`
∴ The required Cartesian co-ordinates are `(2, 2sqrt(3))`.
