By knowing the coordinates of an object ( usually given in equatorial coordinates ), the telescope user can use the setting circle to align the telescope in the appropriate direction before looking through its eyepiece.

A point of the plane belongs to an algebraic curve if its coordinates satisfy a given polynomial equation.

On the plane the most common alternative is polar coordinates, where every point is represented by its radius r from the origin and its angle θ.

The notation ∇ × F has its origins in the similarities to the 3 dimensional cross product, and it is useful as a mnemonic in Cartesian coordinates if we take ∇ as a vector differential operator del.

One can use the same principle to specify the position of any point in three-dimensional space by three Cartesian coordinates, its signed distances to three mutually perpendicular planes ( or, equivalently, by its perpendicular projection onto three mutually perpendicular lines ).

If ( x, y ) are the Cartesian coordinates of a point, then (− x, y ) are the coordinates of its reflection across the second coordinate axis ( the Y axis ), as if that line were a mirror.

Likewise, ( x, − y ) are the coordinates of its reflection across the first coordinate axis ( the X axis ).

Its coordinates are 15 25 N, 61 20 W. It is known as " The Nature Island of the Caribbean " due to its spectacular, lush, and varied flora and fauna, which is protected by an extensive natural park system.

A surface such as a plane or the surface of a cylinder or sphere has a dimension of two because two coordinates are needed to specify a point on it ( for example, to locate a point on the surface of a sphere you need both its latitude and its longitude ).

The Taylor series of the map is F ( x ) = J · x + O ( x < sup > 2 </ sup >), so a change of coordinates h can only be expected to simplify F to its linear part

In this approach, a point is represented by its Cartesian ( x, y ) coordinates, a line is represented by its equation, and so on.

In difficult cases, the silver carboxylate may be used, since the silver ion coordinates to the halide aiding its departure and improving the reaction rate.

Furthermore, each Riemannian metric is naturally associated with one particular kind of connection, the Levi-Civita connection, and this is, in fact, the connection that satisfies the equivalence principle and makes space locally Minkowskian ( that is, in suitable locally inertial coordinates, the metric is Minkowskian, and its first partial derivatives and the connection coefficients vanish ).

Free basic membership allows users to see coordinates for most caches in its database ; premium membership includes a fee for additional features, including advanced search tools and caches designed for premium members.

: Given a point ( in terms of its coordinates ) and the direction ( azimuth ) and distance from that point to a second point, determine ( the coordinates of ) that second point.

He found that the Lorentz transformation must transcend its connection with Maxwell's equations, and must represent the fundamental relations between the space and time coordinates of inertial frames of reference.

Mauritius coordinates much of its foreign policy with the Southern Africa Development Community and the Organization of African Unity.

In this model we consider a particle as being a point of mass which describes a trajectory in space which is modeled by a function giving its coordinates in space as a function of time.
