poolcoördinaatsysteem
The poolcoördinaatsysteem, or polar coordinate system, is a two-dimensional coordinate system where points are identified by a distance from a central point and an angle from a reference direction. The central point is called the pole or origin, and the reference direction is the polar axis, typically depicted as a horizontal ray extending to the right from the pole.
Each point in the polar coordinate system is represented by an ordered pair (r, θ), where 'r' is
Unlike the Cartesian coordinate system (x, y), the representation of a point in polar coordinates is not
The polar coordinate system is particularly well-suited for describing phenomena that exhibit rotational symmetry, such as
