That is because - for example - some calculations are easier in polar coordinates, and some are easier in rectangular coordinates. For example, complex numbers are easier to add and subtract in rectangular coordinates, and easier to multiply and divide in polar coordinates.

The Cartesian coordinate system can have more than two dimensions?

true


Another word for place?

For my question I would say that the answer is coordinates because coordinate System is assigned to a model, that coordinate system appears in the Auxiliary Coordinate System dialog. When it is made the active Auxiliary Coordinate System, it is possible to enter data to MicroStation in Longitude, Latitude format, and you can set coordinate readout to show Longitude and Latitude.


What is formed by horizontal and vertical lines and is used to locate points?

One part of a coordinate system. More than this is required.


Are plant cells more efficient in carrying out its functions than animal cells?

No, Plants are not more efficient. Animals are more efficient because they coordinate by hormones and CNS ( Central Nervous System ). But plants coordinate only by hormones, therefore animals are more efficient.


In which ordered pair is the x-coordinate 3 more than the y-coordinate?

WHY DO POSITION IS A VECTOR QUANTITY?

To describe position, you need more than one number - for instance, an x-coordinate, a y-coordinate, and (if it is in three dimensions) a z-coordinate. That's the very essence of a vector - the fact that it is made up of several components.


How does an ordinate differ from a coordinate?

There are slight differences between a coordinate and and ordinate. In mathematics, an ordinate is plotted on the vertical axis of a two dimensional system and is an element of an ordered pair. A coordinate however, refers to a geometry system which uses one or more than one number to chart and determine the position of a point or other geometic element.


Do economic analysts use coordinate planes?

Yes, almost all the time. And when it is not coordinate planes it is coordinate hype-spaces (more than just the 2 dimensions that the coordinate plane allows).


Ordered pairs located in the first quadrant of a Cartesian coordinate system have?

Points located in the first quadrant of a Cartesian coordinate system have both coordinates ('x' and 'y') positive, i.e. equal to or greater than zero.


What is the axes of a rectangle?

First, a coordinate. A coordinate is a number. It labels a point on a line.Second, a coordinate axis is a line with coordinates.to label a point in a plane (a flat surface), we need more than one coordinate axis, and we place a second at right angles to the first.Those axes are called rectangular coordinate axes, because they are at right angles to one another. The coordinates on them are called rectangular coordinates. They are also called Cartesian coordinates.


How do you write the sentence Our school needs a heating system One that is more fuel-efficient than the current system properly?

Our school is in need of a heating system that is more fuel-efficient than the current system. or Our school needs a heating system more fuel-efficient than the current one.


What is 16 to the nearest hundredth in rectangular coordinate system?

The question appears to be a concatenation of two unrelated questions. As it appears, it makes no sense. 16 is a one-digit reference which cannot be located in a rectangular coordinate system. Also, 16 is already rounded to a greater extent than a hundredth.
