<PRE><B>Question 603908</B>
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.
10(cos(90 + (360b/5)) + i sin(90 + (360n/5))
-------
n = 0: 10(cos(90)+isin(90) = 0+10i
-----
n = 1: 10(cos(90+72)+ isin(90+72)) = -9.5106+3.0902i
-----
n = 2: 10(cos(90+2*72) + isin(90+2*72)) = -5.8779-8.0902i
-----
n = 3: 10(cos(90+3*72) + isin(90+3*72) = 5.8779+8.0902i
-----
n = 4: 10(cos(90+4*72) + isin(90+4*72) = 9.5106+3.0902i
====================
Each of those answers is in the form a + bi.
Those a,b values are the coordinates of the vertices of the pentagon.
