Converting from polar to Cartesian coordinates.

Normally we use Cartesian coordinates. There is no polar coordinates in Flash so we must convert polar to Cartesian coordinates.
To convert we should find X, Y (red lines on illustration). To get them we must project vector p on Cartesian axes, using following expression:

x = p*Math.cos(f)
y = p*Math.sin(f)
