There are two main types: Cartesian coordinates and Polar coordinates.
In n-dimensional Cartesian coordinates there are n axes which are [usually] orthogonal and which meet at a single point called the origin. The coordinates of any point in the n-space are defined by the ordered n-tuple whose terms refer to the distances of the point, from the origin, along each of the axes.
In n-dimensional Polar coordinates, the point is located using its distance from the origin and the angles that this radial line makes with specified lines and planes.

How is a coordinate plane similar to a coordinate system?
The coordinate system can be in any number of dimensions whereas the coordinate plane is a 2-dimensional concept.
What is the difference between coordinate system and coordinate plane?

When was the Cartesian Coordinate System invented?
The Cartesian coordinate system was invented in the 17th century. The idea of this system was developed in 1637.
Parts of coordinate system?
Origin and axes.
The Cartesian coordinate system can be applied to three-dimensional solids Instead of two axes the coordinate system has three What are their labels?

Which coordinate in the equatorial coordinate system is like longitude in the geographical coordinate system?
a coordinate system is lines of longuitude and latitude that are used in a map to locate something. There is a coordiante in the Equatorial Coordinate System that is like longitude in the Geographical Coordinate System.....what is the coordinate? Celestial Equator?
How many coordinate systems are there in Physics?
In physics, there are mainly two types of coordinate systems used: Cartesian coordinate system and spherical coordinate system. The choice of coordinate system depends on the nature of the problem being solved and the symmetry of the system. Other coordinate systems, such as cylindrical and polar, can also be used for specific applications.

Can you transfer the information presented in many types of charts and graphs to cartesian coordinate system?
True.
What does a Cartesian Coordinate System do?
A Cartesian coordinate system is a coordinate system that specifies each point uniquely in a plane by a pair of numerical coordinates. These coordinate system can be used to provide geometric interpretations for many branches of mathematics.

Who discovered cartesian coordinate system?
The Cartesian Coordinate System was discovered by Rene Descartes.
Does the coordinate system of an object depend on the specific location of the origin of the coordinate system?
Yes.
Who invented a coordinate system?
Rene Descartes invented the Cartesian Coordinate System, hence the name, and Ramanujan created the coordinate graph.
What is the difference between the world coordinate system and a user-defined coordinate system?
A world coordinate system is generally used by gorrilas or pandas in the middle east. A user-defined coordinate system only works for gypsies or pikey scum.
