**Problem Statement:**

Find the coordinates of a point on a circle with radius 20 corresponding to an angle of 315°.

\( (x, y) = ( \_\_\_\_\_ \_\_\_\_\_, \_\_\_\_\_ \_\_\_\_\_ ) \)

**Instruction:**

Round your answers to three decimal places.

**Explanation:**

This is a trigonometric problem where you need to find the coordinates \((x, y)\) of a point on a circle with a given radius and angle. The formula to find the coordinates \((x, y)\) of a point on a circle with radius \(r\) and angle \(\theta\) (in degrees) is:

\[ x = r \cdot \cos(\theta) \]
\[ y = r \cdot \sin(\theta) \]

Given: 
- Radius \(r\) = 20
- Angle \(\theta\) = 315°

Convert the angle to radians if necessary and then substitute the values into the formulas to find \(x\) and \(y\). Finally, round the answers to three decimal places as instructed.
