    locating how far perpendicularly from each axis the point lays. The position of the point in the coordinate system is specified by its two coordinates x and y. This is written as (x‚ y). The coordinate system is also known as the Cartesian coordinate system. The adjective Cartesian comes from Latin version of Rene Descartes’ name The coordinate system was developed to locate points on a plane but it evolved into what we call analytic geometry. The fundamental principle of analytic geometry can be described

    crosses the x-axis. 3. Where the stationary points are. 4. Whether there are any discontinuities. 5. What happens as  Circles: Cartesian equation for a circle is (x - a)2 + (y - b)2 = r2 ‚ where (a‚ b) is the centre of the circle and r is the radius. Parametric Equations: Sketch the graph by substituting in values and plotting points. Find the cartesian form by either using substitution (use t = ...)‚ or by using the identity‚  .

    confirmed that the equipotential lines run perpendicular to electric field lines by looking at the experimental data points. Lab Partner: Matthew Seesselberg II. Experimental Procedure: We begin the experiment by setting up the glass tray with Cartesian planes below it. The two wire probes on +5‚ -5 sides of the glass tray were connected to the power supply and one wire probe on 0‚3 point was connected to the voltmeter. Water is added to the tray upon setting the voltage to 8.00V. Four more points
