Signs of trigonometric functions in each quadrant. In the above graphic, the words in quotation marks are a mnemonic for remembering which three trigonometric functions (sine, cosine, tangent and their reciprocals) are positive in each quadrant. The expression reads "All Science Teachers Crazy" and proceeding counterclockwise from the upper ...
The quadrants may be named or numbered in various ways, but the quadrant where all coordinates are positive is usually called the first quadrant. If the coordinates of a point are (x, y), then its distances from the X-axis and from the Y-axis are | y | and | x |, respectively; where | · | denotes the absolute value of a number.
Using point plotting, one associates an ordered pair of real numbers (x, y) with a point in the plane in a one-to-one manner. As a result, one obtains the 2-dimensional Cartesian coordinate system . To be able to plot points, one needs to first decide on a point in plane which will be called the origin , and a couple of perpendicular lines ...
For any point, the abscissa is the first value (x coordinate), and the ordinate is the second value (y coordinate). In mathematics , the abscissa ( / æ b ˈ s ɪ s . ə / ; plural abscissae or abscissas ) and the ordinate are respectively the first and second coordinate of a point in a Cartesian coordinate system : [ 1 ] [ 2 ]
Hyperbolic coordinates plotted on the Euclidean plane: all points on the same blue ray share the same coordinate value u, and all points on the same red hyperbola share the same coordinate value v. In mathematics, hyperbolic coordinates are a method of locating points in quadrant I of the Cartesian plane
The simplest algorithm for generating a representation of the Mandelbrot set is known as the "escape time" algorithm. A repeating calculation is performed for each x, y point in the plot area and based on the behavior of that calculation, a color is chosen for that pixel.
In mathematics, a spherical coordinate system specifies a given point in three-dimensional space by using a distance and two angles as its three coordinates. These are the radial distance r along the line connecting the point to a fixed point called the origin; the polar angle θ between this radial line and a given polar axis; [a] and
Given a function: from a set X (the domain) to a set Y (the codomain), the graph of the function is the set [4] = {(, ()):}, which is a subset of the Cartesian product.In the definition of a function in terms of set theory, it is common to identify a function with its graph, although, formally, a function is formed by the triple consisting of its domain, its codomain and its graph.
