Challenge Problems
Push your limits with advanced challenges
A drawing starts at (0,0). If you move 10 units left and 5 up using relative coordinates, what are your new coordinates?
💡 Hint: Keep track of the direction and apply it to the last point.
Using polar coordinates, if the first point is at (3,4) and you want to place another point 7 units at a 135-degree angle, calculate the final coordinates.
💡 Hint: Convert polar to rectangular coordinates for your calculation.
