Find R and theta given the components Rx8018 and Ry 6474 R r
Find R and theta given the components Rx=8.018 and Ry= -6.474
R=
round to nearest thousandth as needed
theta=
answers in degrees use angle measure greater than or equal to 0 and less than 360. round to the nearest tenth as needed.
Solution
Rx=8.018 and Ry= -6.474
R=[Rx2+Ry2]
R=[(8.018)2+(-6.474)2]
R=10.305
theta =tan-1(-6.474/8.018)
theta =360-tan-1(6.474/8.018)
theta =360-38.91856
theta =321.1 degrees
