Final answer:

The point (1,0) in polar coordinates is converted to rectangular coordinates by using the formulas x = r * cos(q) and y = r * sin(q), resulting in the same point (1,0) in rectangular coordinates.

Step-by-step explanation:

To convert the point "(1,0)" from polar coordinates to rectangular coordinates, the polar coordinates (r, q) can be converted to rectangular coordinates (x, y) using the equations:

  • x = r * cos(q)
  • y = r * sin(q)

For the polar point (1,0), we have r = 1 and q = 0. Using these values in the equations above, we get:

  • x = 1 * cos(0) = 1 * 1 = 1
  • y = 1 * sin(0) = 1 * 0 = 0

Therefore, the rectangular coordinates corresponding to the polar point (1,0) are (1,0).
