The polar coordinates of a point are given. Find rectangular coordinates of each point.

3,Ï€2

Short Answer

Expert verified

The rectangular coordinate is 0,3.

Step by step solution

01

Step 1. Given information.

The given polar coordinates of a point are3,Ï€2.

02

Step 2. Finding rectangular x-coordinate. 

We know that if a point Pon the terminal side of θand has polar coordinates r,θ, then the corresponding rectangular coordinates are given by x=rcosθandy=rsinθ.
On substituting we get,

x=rcosθ=3cosπ2=30=0

03

Step 3. Finding rectangular y-coordinate.

Similarly on substituting we get,

y=rsinθ=3sinπ2=31=3

Therefore, the rectangular coordinates are0,3.
