2. Cartesian coordinate system - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cartesian_coordinate_system

   Cartesian coordinate system with a circle of radius 2 centered at the origin marked in red. The equation of a circle is (x − a)2 + (y − b)2 = r2 where a and b are the coordinates of the center (a, b) and r is the radius. Cartesian coordinates are named for René Descartes, whose invention of them in the 17th century revolutionized ...

3. Four-dimensional space - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Four-dimensional_space

   Four-dimensional space ( 4D) is the mathematical extension of the concept of three-dimensional space (3D). Three-dimensional space is the simplest possible abstraction of the observation that one needs only three numbers, called dimensions, to describe the sizes or locations of objects in the everyday world.

4. Coordinate system - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coordinate_system

   In geometry, a coordinate system is a system that uses one or more numbers, or coordinates, to uniquely determine the position of the points or other geometric elements on a manifold such as Euclidean space. [1] [2] The order of the coordinates is significant, and they are sometimes identified by their position in an ordered tuple and sometimes ...

5. Homogeneous coordinates - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Homogeneous_coordinates

   Thus unlike Cartesian coordinates, a single point can be represented by infinitely many homogeneous coordinates. The equation of a line through the origin (0, 0) may be written nx + my = 0 where n and m are not both 0. In parametric form this can be written x = mt, y = −nt. Let Z = 1/t, so the coordinates of a point on the line may be written ...

6. Rotation matrix - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rotation_matrix

   Rotation matrix. In linear algebra, a rotation matrix is a transformation matrix that is used to perform a rotation in Euclidean space. For example, using the convention below, the matrix. rotates points in the xy plane counterclockwise through an angle θ about the origin of a two-dimensional Cartesian coordinate system.

7. Quadrant (plane geometry) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quadrant_(plane_geometry)

   Quadrant (plane geometry) The four quadrants of a Cartesian coordinate system. The axes of a two-dimensional Cartesian system divide the plane into four infinite regions, called quadrants, each bounded by two half-axes. These are often numbered from 1st to 4th and denoted by Roman numerals: I (where the signs of the ( x ; y) coordinates are I ...
