2. Cartesian coordinate system - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cartesian_coordinate_system

   The standard orientation, where the xy-plane is horizontal and the z-axis points up (and the x- and the y-axis form a positively oriented two-dimensional coordinate system in the xy-plane if observed from above the xy-plane) is called right-handed or positive. 3D Cartesian coordinate handedness. The name derives from the right-hand rule.

3. Abscissa and ordinate - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Abscissa_and_ordinate

   In common usage, the abscissa refers to the x coordinate and the ordinate refers to the y coordinate of a standard two-dimensional graph. [1] [2]The distance of a point from the y axis, scaled with the x axis, is called the abscissa or x coordinate of the point.

4. Table of nuclides - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Table_of_nuclides

   A table or chart of nuclides is a two-dimensional graph of isotopes of the elements, in which one axis represents the number of neutrons (symbol N) and the other represents the number of protons (atomic number, symbol Z) in the atomic nucleus. Each point plotted on the graph thus represents a nuclide of a known or hypothetical chemical element.

5. Logarithmic scale - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Logarithmic_scale

   Plotted graphs are: y = 10 x (red), y = x (green), y = log e (x) (blue). The top left graph is linear in the X- and Y-axes, and the Y-axis ranges from 0 to 10. A base-10 log scale is used for the Y-axis of the bottom left graph, and the Y-axis ranges from 0.1 to 1000. The top right graph uses a log-10 scale for just the X-axis, and the bottom ...

6. Template:Graph:Chart - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Template:Graph:Chart

   xAxisTitle and yAxisTitle: captions of the x and y axes; xAxisMin, xAxisMax, yAxisMin, and yAxisMax: minimum and maximum values of the x and y axes (not yet supported for bar charts). These parameters can be used to invert the scale of a numeric axis by setting the lowest value to the Max and highest value to the Min.

7. Coordinate system - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coordinate_system

   A point in the plane may be represented in homogeneous coordinates by a triple (x, y, z) where x/z and y/z are the Cartesian coordinates of the point. [10] This introduces an "extra" coordinate since only two are needed to specify a point on the plane, but this system is useful in that it represents any point on the projective plane without the ...

8. Quadrant (plane geometry) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/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.

9. Pournelle chart - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pournelle_chart

   The Pournelle chart, developed by Jerry Pournelle in his 1963 political science Ph.D. dissertation, is a two-dimensional coordinate system which can be used to distinguish political ideologies. It is similar to the political compass and the Nolan Chart in that it is a two-dimensional chart, but the axes of the Pournelle chart are different from ...
