COORDINATE GEOMETRY

Past was base,


present is calculation &
future is application

One day , Renee Descartes, the French
mathematician noticed a fly crawling

2
around on the ceiling. He wanted to know

1
how to tell someone else where the fly was.
Finally he realized that he could describe
the position of the fly by its distance from

4
the walls of the room Then he tried
describing the positions of points, the same
way he described the position of the fly.
Descartes had invented the Cartesian plane!
In his honor, it is also called the Cartesian
plane

LOCATING A PLACE ON THE MAP


A 3-dimensional coordinate system uses angular measurements (X,Y) and
length (Z) to locate points on the earth’s surface. . The Prime Meridian
and Equator serve as base references.
APPLICATIONS…..

GEOGRAPHIC REFERENCING
. Geographic referencing uses three coordinates to locate map features
in real world space. The system determines the location of each point in
a plane as defined by two numbers—its x-coordinate and y-coordinate
APPLICATIONS…..

SATELLITE POSTIONING
A celes3al coordinate system is a
system for specifying posi<ons of
celes<al objects: satellites, planets,
stars, galaxies, and so on. Coordinate
system can specify a posi<on in 3-
dimensional space, or merely the
direc<on of the object on the celes<al
sphere, if its distance is not known or
not important.
Co-ordinate geometry and Calculus
have been used for launch & geo-
posi<oning of the 60 satellites
launched by India from
AryabhaKa I in 1975 to the latest
RISAT I in 2012

APPLICATIONS…..
APPLICATIONS…..

Many modern cities like


Chicago have been built on
the basis of the Cartesian
plane .In Chicago, even the
names of streets follow the
Cartesian coordinate system
logic of East-West and South-
North .
APPLICATIONS…..

ARCHAEOLOGY

Archaeologists use a map and the


Cartesian coordinate system to:
•  establish a grid system over an
archaeological site, labeling each grid
unit;
•  determine the location of artifacts
within each grid unit;
•  construct a scientific inquiry
concerning the location of artifacts
on the site.
WE KNOW THAT THE PAST WAS INSPIRING,
WE KNOW THAT THE PRESENT IS GOING
GREAT,
&
I KNOW THAT THE FUTURE WILL BE
BREATHTAKING.
