functions have certain basic characteristics that permit transient and steady-state analyses of the feedback-controlled system.

Cartesian coordinates‚ also called rectangular coordinates‚ provide a method of rendering graphs and indicating the positions of points on a two-dimensional surface or in three-dimensional space. The scheme gets its name from one of the first people known to have used it‚ the French mathematician and philosopher René Descartes. The Cartesian coordinates in the plane are specified in terms of the x -coordinates axis and the y -coordinate axis‚ as illustrated in the below figure. The origin is the
