Pythagorean

The polar coordinate system describes the location of a point (denoted as [r,0]) in a plane by specifying a distance r and an angle 0 from the origin of the system. There are several relationships between polar and rectangular coordinates, diagrammed in Figure 1-30. From the Pythagorean Theorem... 

To convert rectangular coordinates to polar coordinates, given the point (x,y), using the Pythagorean Theorem and the preceding equations. 

The Pythagorean theorem states that the square of the hypotenuse of a right-angled triangle is equal to the sums of the squares of the other two sides. That is, if the hypotenuse is c and the other two sides arc a and b, then a1 + b2 = c2. 

STRATEGY We calculate the density of the metal by assuming first that its structure is ccp (fee) and then that it is bcc. The structure with the density closer to the experimental value is more likely to be the actual structure. The mass of a unit cell is the sum of the masses of the atoms that it contains. The mass of each atom is equal to the molar mass of the element divided by Avogadro s constant. The volume of a cubic unit cell is the cube of the length of one of its sides. That length is obtained from the radius of the metal atom, the Pythagorean theorem, and the geometry of the cell.
