平面直角坐标系统（Plane Cartesian coordinate system） Edit this paragraph Definition On the same plane perpendicular to each other and the two axes of the origin of public coordinate system, referred to as the Cartesian coordinate system. Usually, two axes were placed in the horizontal position and vertical position, right orientation and upward direction respectively are two axis direction. The level of X is called axis or horizontal axis, vertical axis is called the Y axis or the vertical axis, X axis and Y axis are called coordinate axis, the origin of their common origin O called Cartesian coordinates. English is Cartesian, Coordinate, Plane Edit this paragraph A plane Cartesian coordinate system in Mathematics The concept of plane Cartesian coordinates: In the plane two-dimensional painted two mutually perpendicular, and the origin of the public number. Rectangular coordinate system. The plane rectangular coordinate system has two coordinate axes, in which the horizontal axis is X axis (x-axis), the right direction is positive direction, the vertical axis is Y (Y-axis) axis, and the orientation is positive. The plane of the coordinate system is called the coordinate plane, and the common origin of the two coordinate axis is called the origin of the plane Cartesian coordinate system. The X axis and the Y axis divide the coordinate plane into four quadrants. The upper right is called the first quadrant, and the other three parts are called the second quadrant, the third quadrant and the fourth quadrant in reverse order. The quadrant is bounded by the axis, horizontal axis, vertical axis and the point of origin does not belong to any quadrant. In general, the X axis and the Y axis take the same unit length. Coordinate of points: After we have established a rectangular coordinate system, we can determine the coordinates of any point in the plane of the coordinate system (coordinate). Conversely, for any coordinate, we can determine a point in the coordinate plane that it rep
