What are the coordinates of the terminal point determined by t=10pi/3
1 answer:
we know that
10*pi/3------> convert to degrees------> 10*180/3=600 degrees
600=360+240
240 degrees belong to the III quadrant
so
the x-coordinate is negative
the y-coordinate is negative
240°=180°+60°
60 degrees is the angle to find the terminal point
let
∅=60°
in the unit circle
r=1 units
x=-r*cos ∅----> x=-cos 60------> x=-(1/2)
y=-r*sin ∅----> y=-sin 60------> y=-(√3)/2
the point is
therefore
the answer is the option D

Thus,
The distance formula, gives an equivalent expression based on two points at the end of the hypotenuse for a triangle.
Therefore when given the hypotenuse with endpoints at
We know that the third point of the right triangle will be at
and that the two side lengths will be defined by the absolute values of:
