2. 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 ...

3. 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 ...

4. Octant (solid geometry) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Octant_(solid_geometry)

   The horizontal plane shows the four quadrants between x- and y-axis. (Vertex numbers are little-endian balanced ternary.) An octant in solid geometry is one of the eight divisions of a Euclidean three-dimensional coordinate system defined by the signs of the coordinates. It is similar to the two-dimensional quadrant and the one-dimensional ray. [1]

   Quadrant 3 (angles from 180 to 270 degrees, or π to 3π/2 radians): T angent and cotangent functions are positive in this quadrant. Quadrant 4 (angles from 270 to 360 degrees, or 3π/2 to 2π radians): C osine and secant functions are positive in this quadrant. Other mnemonics include: All S tations T o C entral [6]

6. Abscissa and ordinate - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Abscissa_and_ordinate

   In mathematics, the abscissa (/ æbˈsɪs.ə /; plural abscissae or abscissas) and the ordinate are respectively the first and second coordinate of a point in a Cartesian coordinate system: -axis (vertical) coordinate. Usually these are the horizontal and vertical coordinates of a point in plane, the rectangular coordinate system.

7. atan2 - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Atan2

   atan2. atan2 (y, x) returns the angle θ between the positive x -axis and the ray from the origin to the point (x, y), confined to (−π, π]. Graph of over. In computing and mathematics, the function atan2 is the 2- argument arctangent. By definition, is the angle measure (in radians, with ) between the positive -axis and the ray from the ...
