Answer

Final Answer: The points with polar coordinates (5,2π3) and (2,11π6) are plotted on the Cartesian plane. The first point is located in the second quadrant with Cartesian coordinates approximately (2.5,4.33), and the second point is located in the first quadrant with Cartesian coordinates approximately (1.73,1).

Steps

Step 1 :Given two points with polar coordinates (5,2π3) and (2,11π6).

Step 2 :The polar coordinate system is a two-dimensional coordinate system in which each point on a plane is determined by a distance from a reference point and an angle from a reference direction.

Step 3 :The polar coordinates can be converted to Cartesian coordinates using the following formulas: x=rcos(θ) and y=rsin(θ).

Step 4 :Convert the given polar coordinates to Cartesian coordinates.

Step 5 :For the first point (5,2π3), the Cartesian coordinates are approximately (2.5,4.33).

Step 6 :For the second point (2,11π6), the Cartesian coordinates are approximately (1.73,1).

Step 7 :Final Answer: The points with polar coordinates (5,2π3) and (2,11π6) are plotted on the Cartesian plane. The first point is located in the second quadrant with Cartesian coordinates approximately (2.5,4.33), and the second point is located in the first quadrant with Cartesian coordinates approximately (1.73,1).
