In the diagram below, assume that all points are given in polar coordinates. Determine the rectangular coordinates for each point. Visually check your answers to ensure they make sense.(r,θ)=(6.9,0.7) corresponds to (x,y)=(r,θ)=(7.2,1.5) corresponds to (x,y)=(r,θ)=(8,3.4) corresponds to (x,y)= (r,θ)=(4.7,3π/2) corresponds to (x,y)=
