polar


(polar point angle distance)

This function returns a 2D or 3D point, relative to input point, using provided angle and distance.

Arguments

point  2D or 3D point list (x y) resp. (x y z)
angle  (number) angle, in radians, measured from world X axis
distance  (number) distance from input point

Return

2D or 3D point list (x y) resp. (x y z), same dimension as input point

Example

(polar '(10 10) 1.0 3.0)
(11.620907 12.524413)


(polar '(10 10 10) 1.0 3.0)
(11.620907 12.524413 10.0)

Remarks
