What is a mathematical way to represent location?
With x and y coordinates on the Cartesian plane
Does any what drawn in a rectangular coordinate plane represent a function?
No. Since nothing follows, it cannot represent anything.
What are isoparametric elements where should you use them?
Isoparametric elements use the same set of shape functions to represent both the uniform changes on the initial and secondary conditions and also on local coordinates of elements. The shape functions are defined by natural coordinates, such as triangle coordinates for triangles and square coordinates for any quadrilateral. The advantages of isoparametric elements include the ability to map more complex shapes and have compatible geometries. Besides the accuracy of them is usually more. CPU time for solving linear equations is reduced. most of commercial programs use the isoparametric elements in thier softwares.
What kind of polygon is an arrow?
This question is very difficult to answer because of the ambiguity of what an "arrow" is. An arrow that you might fire from a bow is a three dimensional object and so is not a polygon. An arrow drawn as a straight line with a direction indicator at its head with or without tail feathers (for example <|----<< : oh, the graphics on this browser are so good, aren't they!) is not a polygon because the shaft is a line: a 1-dimensional object. An arrow such as the default one used to represent the cursor in Windows is a concave heptagon.
How can an equation represent a shape?
Two-dimensional geometry. Each corner of the shape is given two reference co-ordinates (x,y). When you plot these points and join them together, you get the shape. It's like magic. So a square has four points (corners) and they might have the reference points: (0,0) (0,3) (3,3) (3,0) Can I edit the answer of this question to say this really doesn't answer the question? My question was more like how does: (x - h)2 + (y - k)2 = r2 represent a circle? Though more general to be like how can equations like that actually represent a shape?
If you use a pair of x- and y-coordinates (x y) to represent a point in a two-dimensional Cartesian coordinate system how would you represent a point in a three-dimensional Cartesian coordinate system?
( x y z )
Does x equals 0 represent the y axis?
In the two dimensional Cartesian coordinate system, yes.
What is the difference between the cartesian and coordinate plane?
points of co-ordinates plane are represent by cartesian
What is the difference between the Cartesian plane and Coordinate plane?
points of co-ordinates plane are represent by cartesian
What is a mathematical way to represent location?
With x and y coordinates on the Cartesian plane
What describes the two lines in a Cartesian coordinate system?
The labelling of the lines tells you what they represent.
How would you represent a point in a three dimensional Cartesian?
You would need three points. (x,y,z)
What are some applications of the Cartesian coordinate system?
The most obvious is to plot relationships between one quantity and another. If for every thing you sell, you make 3 dollars, then you could express that as the equation y=3x and plot that using the Cartesian coordinate system. (where y would represent dollars and x would represent items sold)
What are coordinates on a map?
A geographic coordinate system is a coordinate system that enables every location on the Earth to be specified by a set of numbers. The coordinates are often chosen such that one of the numbers represent vertical position, and two or three of the numbers represent horizontal position. A common choice of coordinates is latitude, longitude and elevation.
What is a Cartesian graph and what does it represent?
A cartesian graph is a graph in which y is some function of x. This is the 'normal' type in which you can give an x and y coordinate. Other types include polar in which modulus is a function of argument, but there are loads of varieties and forms.
What is a map that shows longitude and latitude called?
A geographic coordinate system is a coordinate system that enables every location on the Earth to be specified by a set of numbers. The coordinates are often chosen such that one of the numbers represent vertical position, and twoor three of the numbers represent horizontal position. A common choice of coordinates is latitude, longitude and elevation.
Do rectangular coordinates have the same property as polar coordinates?
Some of them but not all. For example, uniqueness. The rectangular coordinates (x, y) represent a different point if either x or y is changed. This is also true for polar coordinate (r, a) but only if r > 0. For r = 0 the coordinates represent the same point, whatever a is. Thus (x, y) has a 1-to-1 mapping onto the plane but the polar coordinates don't.
