To convert polar coordinates $$(r, \theta)$$ to rectangular coordinates $$(x, y)$$, we use the formulas:

$$
x = r \cos(\theta)
$$
$$
y = r \sin(\theta)
$$

Given the polar coordinates $$(-10, 0)$$, we have:

- $$r = -10$$
- $$\theta = 0$$

Now, we can calculate the rectangular coordinates:

1. Calculate $$x$$:
   $$
   x = -10 \cos(0) = -10 \cdot 1 = -10
   $$

2. Calculate $$y$$:
   $$
   y = -10 \sin(0) = -10 \cdot 0 = 0
   $$

Thus, the rectangular coordinates are:

$$
\boxed{(-10, 0)}
$$
(-10, 0)
