  2. Point plotting - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Point_plotting

    Using point plotting, one associates an ordered pair of real numbers (x, y) with a point in the plane in a one-to-one manner. As a result, one obtains the 2-dimensional Cartesian coordinate system . To be able to plot points, one needs to first decide on a point in plane which will be called the origin , and a couple of perpendicular lines ...

  3. Scatter plot - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scatter_plot

    A scatter plot, also called a scatterplot, scatter graph, scatter chart, scattergram, or scatter diagram, [2] is a type of plot or mathematical diagram using Cartesian coordinates to display values for typically two variables for a set of data. If the points are coded (color/shape/size), one additional variable can be displayed.

    its intersection with the picture plane, and; its vanishing point, found at the intersection between the parallel line from the eye point and the picture plane. The principal vanishing point is the vanishing point of all horizontal lines perpendicular to the picture plane. The vanishing points of all horizontal lines lie on the horizon line. If ...

  5. Vector graphics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vector_graphics

    Because vector graphics consist of coordinates with lines/curves between them, the size of the representation does not depend on the dimensions of the object. This minimal amount of information translates to a much smaller [13] file size compared to large raster images which are defined pixel by pixel. This said, a vector graphic with a small ...

  6. Plot (graphics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plot_(graphics)

    The normal probability plot is a special case of the probability plot. Nyquist plot : Plot is used in automatic control and signal processing for assessing the stability of a system with feedback. It is represented by a graph in polar coordinates in which the gain and phase of a frequency response are plotted.

  7. Cartesian coordinate system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cartesian_coordinate_system

    A Cartesian coordinate system in two dimensions (also called a rectangular coordinate system or an orthogonal coordinate system [8]) is defined by an ordered pair of perpendicular lines (axes), a single unit of length for both axes, and an orientation for each axis. The point where the axes meet is taken as the origin for both, thus turning ...

  8. Rotation of axes in two dimensions - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rotation_of_axes_in_two...

    A point P has coordinates (x, y) with respect to the original system and coordinates (x′, y′) with respect to the new system. [1] In the new coordinate system, the point P will appear to have been rotated in the opposite direction, that is, clockwise through the angle . A rotation of axes in more than two dimensions is defined similarly.
