The Cartesian form of (24,15π6) is (0,24).

Explanation:

Consider the figure. In this figure the angle is 22.6 but in our case enter image source here

Let the Cartesian form of (24,15π6) be (x,y).
Consider the figure. From figure:

cos(15π6)=x24

x=24cos(15π6)=24(0)=0
x=0
Also from figure:

sin(15π6)=y24
y=24sin(15π6)=24(1)=24
y=24

Therefore the Cartesian form of (24,15π6) is (0,24).
