How could I convert an angle (in degrees/radians) to a point (X,Y) a fixed distance away from a center-point.
Like a point rotating around a center-point.
Exactly the opposite of atan2 which computes the angle of the point y/x (in radians).
Note: I kept the original title because that’s what people who do not understand will be searching by!
Let the fixed distance be D, then X = D * cos(A) and Y = D * sin(A), where A is the angle.
