Question

In the figure OP= 1 what are the coordinates of Point p​

Answer 1

Distance from x axis

• sinØ=x/OP
• x=OPsinØ=sinØ

Distance from y axis

• y=OP cosØ
• y=cosØ

P(cosØ,sinØ

Answer 2

• C. (cos θ, sin θ)

Explanation:

The x-coordinate of P:

• x/OP = cos θ ⇒ x = OP cos θ = cos θ

The y-coordinate of P:

• y/OP = sin θ ⇒ y = OP sin θ = sin θ

The coordinates of point P are:

• (cos θ, sin θ)

Correct choice is C
