2Dkoordinaat

2Dkoordinaat refers to a point within a two-dimensional Cartesian coordinate system. This system uses two perpendicular axes, typically labeled the x-axis and the y-axis, to define the position of any point. The x-axis is usually horizontal, and the y-axis is vertical.

A 2Dkoordinaat is represented by an ordered pair of numbers, commonly written as (x, y). The first number, x, indicates the horizontal distance of the point from the origin (the point where the x and y axes intersect). A positive x value signifies a position to the right of the origin, while a negative x value indicates a position to the left. The second number, y, represents the vertical distance of the point from the origin. A positive y value means the point is above the origin, and a negative y value means it is below.

The origin itself has coordinates (0, 0). The coordinate system is divided into four quadrants by the axes. The first quadrant is where both x and y are positive, the second where x is negative and y is positive, the third where both are negative, and the fourth where x is positive and y is negative. 2Dkoordinaat is fundamental in various fields, including geometry, computer graphics, physics, and mapping.
