(a) The polar coordinates of a point are (3, 5π/4). Find the rectangular coordinates of the point. (b) The rectangular coordinates of a point are (0, -2). Find the polar coordinates of the point, assuming r > 0 and 0 ≤ θ < 2π.

If the vector $\mathbf{A}=\hat{\mathbf{i}}-2 \hat{\mathbf{j}}$ and the vector $\mathbf{B}=4 \hat{\mathbf{i}}-5 \hat{\mathbf{J}},$ what angle does $\mathbf{A}$ $+$ B form with the $x$ -axis? (A) $\theta=\tan ^{-1} \frac{3}{5}$ (B) $\theta=\tan ^{-1} \frac{7}{5}$ (C) $\theta=\sin ^{-1} \frac{3}{5}$ (D) $\theta=\sin ^{-1} \frac{5}{7}$
