Cartesian coordinates
(rectangular coordinates)
In our blog for the students of 9th,10th,11th,12th, NEET and IIT , this is a post dealing with one of the most complicated and a deemed-to-be very tough topic. We have made it very simple and can be useful for both RBSE and CBSE students.
Cartesian coordinates, also called rectangular coordinates, provide a method of expressing graphs and indicating the positions of points on a two-dimensional (2D) surface or in three-dimensional (3D) space.
The Cartesian plane consists of two perpendicular axes that cross at a central point called the origin. The origin is usually, but not always, assigned the value (0,0).
Positions or coordinates are determined according to the east/west and north/south displacements from the origin. The east/west axis is often called the x axis, and the north/south axis is called the y axis. For this reason, the Cartesian plane is also known as the xy -plane.
