SOLUTION: Find the distance between the points with polar coordinates (2, 2π/3) and (3, π/4).

Question 1022514: Find the distance between the points with polar coordinates (2, 2π/3) and (3, π/4).

Answer by fractalier(6550) (Show Source): You can put this solution on YOUR website!
You use the law of cosines to find the distance, where a and b are the radial distances and the angle in the formula is the difference between them...here a = 2, b = 3, and theta = 2π/3 - π/4 = 5π/12
So we can write

and

and
c = 3.1455
