Answer:
a) <8.356, 9.959>
b) <-0.605, -1.663>
c) <-5.023, 2.9>
Step-by-step explanation:
Many calculators can perform polar ⇔ rectangular conversion. Attached is the result from one of them. Of course, you can also program a spreadsheet to do it. (The ATAN2( ) function is useful for finding the correct angle.)
If you want to do these calculations by hand, the conversion is ...
<r, θ> ⇒ <r·cos(θ), r·sin(θ)>
In the attached, the rectangular coordinates are shown as complex numbers. The imaginary component is the y-component of the vector.
