Finding coordinates of a point in a circle with angle

[AlicanC]

I have a point (x,y), a distance (d) and an angle (a). I need a method to find a point using x,y,d and a. For example:

I will apply this on a 3D environment, but I am not going to use the 3rd dimension so it's safe.
This is also about programming, but I am capable of applying methods in the programming language so I asked it here.

$$(x_?,y_?) = (x+d\cos\alpha,y+d\sin\alpha)$$

Thanks for the answer, but I have a problem. I wrote some code to put this in action. The code starts from "0" and adds "20" to the angle until the vaule is greater than to "360". I don't know why but the code produced this:

As you can see there are some mistakes. All are getting repeated but the ones I marked. Here is the debug output I get:

As you can see some values are too close. I am really bad at trigonometry, so I can't find the problem.

The center is at (-49, -1082) and your first point, with the angle, 0 is at
(51, -1082) then radius, d, is 100.

So, when the angle is 20 the point should be
$$100(\cos(20)) + -49 \approx 45$$
$$100(\sin(20))+ -1082 \approx -1048$$

But you have:

Ah, you are right! I was making calculations with radians.

Thank you both so much! I was trying to figure this out for two days! Normally I post my questions to forums related to coding or just ask my friends, but can't get an answer :D

Always a problem if you forget. When I get errors like that, the first thing I do is to check the mode on my calculator. Lol.
