How could I do the following?
November 25, 2002 12:10 PM
I know the equation to find the angle of a point on a coordinate system. I was wondering though is there a equation of forumal to find a X and Y coordinate based on an angle? Does anyone know how how I do this. The way I find the angle of an X and Y coordinate uses trigonometry. I don''t have the exact equation at the moment but anyways. Does anyone know?

x = r*cos α
y = r*sin α

... where a is the angle and r is the distance between the origin and the point.
