\[x=rcos(\theta) , y=rsin(\theta)\]
OpenStudy (anonymous):
\[ \sin(5\pi/3) = \sin(\pi/3) = (\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2})\]
OpenStudy (anonymous):
For (6sqrt2))cos(5pi/3) I get 4.242640607. Do I round that up or what else?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
what form do i put it in
OpenStudy (anonymous):
\[\cos(5\pi/3) = - \cos(\pi/3) = -\frac{1}{2}\]

you can get exact values!,
OpenStudy (anonymous):
they want exact values
OpenStudy (anonymous):
do i not put the 6sqrt2 in the front
OpenStudy (anonymous):
yeah, exact values
OpenStudy (anonymous):
no, I was just finding the angles

the answers u gave are wrong.
OpenStudy (anonymous):
is 1/2 the x value? and sqrt3/2 y
OpenStudy (anonymous):
\[ x =-6\sqrt{2} \frac{1}{2} , y= 6\sqrt{2}\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}\]
OpenStudy (anonymous):
lol
plz dont tell u you put them in :(
OpenStudy (anonymous):
^ thats the FINAL answer

i did.
OpenStudy (anonymous):
well simplify it a bit
OpenStudy (anonymous):
x = -3sqrt(2) , y= 3sqrt(6)
OpenStudy (anonymous):
the answer for x seems very obscure
OpenStudy (anonymous):
the other one's r wrong to

no their not
OpenStudy (anonymous):
that's what the my hw program says. i hate it :P
OpenStudy (amistre64):
x = 3sqrt(2) y = -3sqrt(6)
OpenStudy (anonymous):
no,

wait lols , maybe
OpenStudy (amistre64):
360-60 :)
OpenStudy (anonymous):
yeh I was thinking 2pi/3 :|
OpenStudy (anonymous):
amistre to the rescue: Thank you for all ur help eng :)
OpenStudy (amistre64):
elec did al the hard stuff; got rid of the errors I would have done lol
