The polar coordinates of a point are 3π 4 and 7.00 m. What are its Cartesian coordinates (in m)? (x, y) = 6.06,−3.5 m

Keith_Richards [23]

Answer:

a) $\left(x,y\right)=\left(4.95,-4.95\right)$

b) $r\angle\theta = 7\angle0.5236\,\text{radians}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Polar coordinates are represented as: $r\angle\theta$ , where 'r' is the length (or magnitude) of the line, and ' $\theta$ ' is the angle measured from the positive x-axis.

in our case:

$7\angle\dfrac{3\pi}{4}$

to covert the polar to cartesian:

$x = r\cos{\theta}$

$y = r\sin{\theta}$

we can plug in our values:

$x = 7\cos{\dfrac{3\pi}{4}} = -7\dfrac{\sqrt{2}}{2}$

$y = 7\sin{\dfrac{3\pi}{4}} = 7\dfrac{\sqrt{2}}{2}$

the Cartesian coordinates are:

$\left(x,y\right)=\left(-7\dfrac{\sqrt{2}}{2},7\dfrac{\sqrt{2}}{2}\right)$

$\left(x,y\right)=\left(4.95,-4.95\right)$

(b) to convert (x,y) = (6.06,-3.5)

we'll use the pythagoras theorem to find 'r'

$r^2 = x^2+y^2$

$r^2 = (6.06)^2+(-3.5)^2$

$r = \sqrt{48.97} \approx 7$

the angle can be found by:

$\tan{\theta} = \dfrac{y}{x}$

$\tan{\theta} = \dfrac{3.5}{6.06}$

$\theta = \arctan{left(\dfrac{3.5}{6.06}\right)}$

$\theta = 0.5236 \text{radians}$

to convert radians to degrees:

$\theta = 0.5236 \times \dfrac{180}{\pi} \approx 30^\circ$

writing in polar coordinates:

$r\angle\theta = 7\angle30^\circ\,\,\text{OR}\,\,7\angle0.5236\,\text{radians}$

Write an equation in slope-intercept form for the line that passes through the point ( -1 , -2 ) and is perpendicular to the l

mamaluj [8]

The equation in slope-intercept form for the line that passes through the point ( -1 , -2 ) and is perpendicular to the line − 4 x − 3 y = − 5 is $y = \frac{3}{4}x - \frac{5}{4}$

<em><u>Solution:</u></em>

<em><u>The slope intercept form is given as:</u></em>

y = mx + c ----- eqn 1

Where "m" is the slope of line and "c" is the y - intercept

Given that the line that passes through the point ( -1 , -2 ) and is perpendicular to the line − 4 x − 3 y = − 5

Given line is perpendicular to − 4 x − 3 y = − 5

− 4 x − 3 y = − 5

-3y = 4x - 5

3y = -4x + 5

$y = \frac{-4x}{3} + \frac{5}{3}$

On comparing the above equation with eqn 1, we get,

$m = \frac{-4}{3}$

We know that product of slope of a line and slope of line perpendicular to it is -1

$\frac{-4}{3} \times \text{ slope of line perpendicular to it}= -1\\\\\text{ slope of line perpendicular to it} = \frac{3}{4}$

Given point is (-1, -2)

Now we have to find the equation of line passing through (-1, -2) with slope $m = \frac{3}{4}$

Substitute (x, y) = (-1, -2) and m = 3/4 in eqn 1

$-2 = \frac{3}{4}(-1) + c\\\\-2 = \frac{-3}{4} + c\\\\c = - 2 + \frac{3}{4}\\\\c = \frac{-5}{4}$

$\text{ substitute } c = \frac{-5}{4} \text{ and } m = \frac{3}{4} \text{ in eqn 1}$

$y = \frac{3}{4} \times x + \frac{-5}{4}\\\\y = \frac{3}{4}x - \frac{5}{4}$

Thus the required equation of line is found

Answer:

The lines are perpendicular, meaning if they were to intersect, they would form four right angles.
