this is a question involving trigonometric functions. If you know the basic trig functions, then this is easy. I suggest you look in your math book for the trig functions.

First of all, the number is "pi". "Pie" is the name of a round, baked dessert.
Are you asking why (1, Ï/6) in polar coordinates is (â3/2, 1/2) in rectangular?

Polar form is 1, 11Ï/6 where 1 is radius and 11Ï/6 is angle
Rectangular form is (x,y)
x = 1(cos11Ï/6) = (â3)/2
and y = 1(sin11Ï/6) = - 1/2

???
I have no idea what you're talking about or what that 'equation' (if that's what it's supposed to be) is trying to say. The notation isn't anything I've ever seen before.

on the left side of the equation is the radian measure. on the right side is its corresponding coordinates...i think you must look on your trigonometry book...you will surely understand it
