A Cartesian coordinate system specifies each point uniquely in a plane by a pair of numerical coordinates, which are the signed distances from the point to two fixed perpendicular directed lines, measured in the same unit of length. Each reference line is called a coordinate axis or just axis of the system.
The cartesian coordinates are plotted on the cartesian plane
You do not have 3 coordinates in the Cartesian plane. The Cartesian plane is a plane and is therefore 2 dimensional. In 2 dimensional space you require only 2 coordinates. 3 coordinates are required to locate a point in 3-dimensional space but then it cannot be a Cartesian PLANE.
The x coordinates are horizontal whereas the y coordinates are vertical on the Cartesian plane.
If the polar coordinates of a point P are (r,a) then the rectangular coordinates of P are x = rcos(a) and y = rsin(a).
René Descartes is usually given credit. Hence the name "Cartesian coordinates".
Renee Descartes invented the Cartesian Coordinate system, commonly known as rectangular coordinates.

use cartesian coordinates
Some problems are easier to solve using polar coordinates, others using Cartesian coordinates.
If the polar coordinates of a complex number are (r,a) where r is the distance from the origin and a the angle made with the x axis, then the cartesian coordinates of the point are: x = r*cos(a) and y = r*sin(a)

They were developed by Rene Descartes (and so are also called Cartesian Coordinates).
