One of the most intriguing features of Stonehenge is the position of the four Station Stones.

They form the corners of a rectangle inscribed in the Aubrey Circle on the perimeter of the henge, which has diameter 288 feet. A line from the center of the circle and perpendicular to the long edge of the rectangle points through the Slaughter Stones at the entrance of the henge and out to the Heel Stone. If you stood in the center of the circle on the summer solstice, you would see the sun rise directly over the Heel Stone.

1. The sun rises [latex]48.6°[/latex] east of north on the summer solstice at Stonehenge. If the positive [latex]y[/latex]-axis points north, find the coordinates of the henge entrance relative to its center.
2. The northernmost station stone is located [latex]66.6°[/latex] of arc counterclockwise from the entrance. Find its coordinates relative to the center of the henge.
