  1. Given that the \(x\)-coordinate of \(M\) lies in the interval \(\frac { 1 } { 2 } \pi < x < \frac { 3 } { 4 } \pi\), find the exact coordinates of \(M\). \includegraphics[max width=\textwidth, alt={}, center]{656df2a8-fc4d-49f3-a649-746103b4576e-10_2718_35_107_2012} \includegraphics[max width=\textwidth, alt={}, center]{656df2a8-fc4d-49f3-a649-746103b4576e-11_2725_35_99_20}
