Two axes crossing at right angles, and a unit of measurement for each of the two axes.
Cartesian coordinate system.
A point's y coordinate is its vertical position, or how high or low it is.
Four.
cosine, sin* * * * *No. They are the horizontal or x-coordinate, called the abscissa; and the vertical or y-coordinate, called the ordinate.
The point (-4, -3) is located in the third quadrant of a rectangular coordinate system. In this quadrant, both the x-coordinate and the y-coordinate are negative. Therefore, any point with negative values for both coordinates falls within this quadrant.
The other name for the rectangular coordinate system is the Cartesian coordinate system. You can remember it because cartography is the study of maps, which are generally rectangular.
Rene Descartes developed the rectangular coordinate system.

Rene Descartes.
The rectangular coordinate system is the basis for how we find locations on a map, for example (even though the earth is actually a sphere, this was a basis). I would say it is rather important.

It's like cheese.
