What are the cartesian coordinates and polar coordinates of the tips of the hour hand and minute hand, H and M, respectively, at the following times? 9 am and at 3:30 p.m. \n" ); document.write( "----- \n" ); document.write( "At 9AM:: \n" ); document.write( "hr hand at 9 = 180 degrees \n" ); document.write( "Cartesian: (-3,0) \n" ); document.write( "Polar: (3,180) \n" ); document.write( "------------------------ \n" ); document.write( "min hand at 12 = 90 degrees \n" ); document.write( "Cartesian: (0.4) \n" ); document.write( "Polar: (4,90) \n" ); document.write( "============================== \n" ); document.write( "At 3:30 PM \n" ); document.write( "hr hand at 3.5 = 345 degrees \n" ); document.write( "Cartesian:: (3cos(345),3sin(345)) = (2.9,-0.776) \n" ); document.write( "polar: (3,345) \n" ); document.write( "------------------------ \n" ); document.write( "min hand at 6 = 270 degrees \n" ); document.write( "Cartesian:: (0,-4) \n" ); document.write( "Polar:: (4,270) \n" ); document.write( "========================== \n" ); document.write( "Cheers, \n" ); document.write( "Stan H. \n" ); document.write( "====================== \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( " |
