Answer:
The coordinates of the point on a circle with radius 4 at an angle of [tex]\frac{2\pi}{3}[/tex] radians are x = -2 and y = 3.464.
Step-by-step explanation:
This problem ask us to determine the rectangular coordinates from polar coordinates. The polar coordinates of the point in rectangular form is expressed by the following expression:
[tex](x,y) = (r\cdot \cos \theta, r\cdot \sin \theta)[/tex]
Where [tex]r[/tex] and [tex]\theta[/tex] are the radius of the circle and the angle of inclination of the point with respect to horizontal, measured in radians. If [tex]r = 4[/tex] and [tex]\theta = \frac{2\pi}{3}\,rad[/tex], the coordinates of the point are:
[tex](x,y) = \left(4\cdot \cos \frac{2\pi}{3},4\cdot \sin \frac{2\pi}{3} \right)[/tex]
[tex](x,y) = (-2, 3.464)[/tex]
The coordinates of the point on a circle with radius 4 at an angle of [tex]\frac{2\pi}{3}[/tex] radians are x = -2 and y = 3.464.
