The word "origin" means the point (0, 0) on the x-y plane.

The meaning of the phrase "origin of an object" is much less certain.

What is the trigonometric form of a complex number?

The standard form of a complex number is the cartesian one; a plane with orthogonal axes for real parts and imaginary parts. A complex number has a pair of co-ordinates defining its position on the plane. A trigonometric form is a plane with an origin, and one line from the origin to infinity. A complex number is defined by its distance from the origin and the angle between the datum line and the line joining the number to the origin. It is just like co-ordinate geometry with co-ords r, theta instead of x,y.


Does a plane mirror always form the image of an object exactly on the plane reflecting surface?

Yes, a plane mirror always forms a virtual image of an object that appears to be behind the mirror at the same distance as the object is in front of it. The image is upright and the same size as the object.


What plane has the two number lines that intersect?

Think about it, the x & y planes intersect and what one number has both, the x & y planes intersect. 0 on the coordinate plane is the, origin.


The image in a plane mirror an be upright or inverted depending on where the object is?

The image formed in a plane mirror is always upright, regardless of the position of the object in front of it. This is because the mirror simply reflects the light rays without altering their orientation. The size and distance of the image may appear to vary, but it will always be upright.


Can 3 points be non-coplanar is outside the plane?

If you are given a plane, you can always find and number of points that are not in that plane but, given anythree points there is always at least one plane that goes through all three.
