Algebra.Com's Answer #380874 by stanbon(75887)![]() ![]() ![]() You can put this solution on YOUR website! A student is designing a club logo to be produced on a computer screen. The outline is a regular pentagon inscribed in a circle with radius 10. One vertex is at (0,10). Find (to the nearest thousandth) the coordinates of the other vertices. \n" ); document.write( "10(cos(90 + (360b/5)) + i sin(90 + (360n/5)) \n" ); document.write( "------- \n" ); document.write( "n = 0: 10(cos(90)+isin(90) = 0+10i \n" ); document.write( "----- \n" ); document.write( "n = 1: 10(cos(90+72)+ isin(90+72)) = -9.5106+3.0902i \n" ); document.write( "----- \n" ); document.write( "n = 2: 10(cos(90+2*72) + isin(90+2*72)) = -5.8779-8.0902i \n" ); document.write( "----- \n" ); document.write( "n = 3: 10(cos(90+3*72) + isin(90+3*72) = 5.8779+8.0902i \n" ); document.write( "----- \n" ); document.write( "n = 4: 10(cos(90+4*72) + isin(90+4*72) = 9.5106+3.0902i \n" ); document.write( "==================== \n" ); document.write( "Each of those answers is in the form a + bi. \n" ); document.write( "Those a,b values are the coordinates of the vertices of the pentagon. \n" ); document.write( "Cheers, \n" ); document.write( "Stan H. \n" ); document.write( " |
