A point plotted using the spherical coordinate system | | mathematics | coordinate system | zenith | azimuth | orthogonal projection | ISO 31-11 | left-handed | polar coordinate system | cylindrical coordinate system | cylindrical coordinates | The coordinate surfaces of the spherical coordinates (r, θ, φ). The red sphere shows the points with r=2, the blue cone shows the points with θ=45°, and the yellow half-plane shows the points with φ=-60°. The z-axis is vertical and the x-axis is highlighted in green. The three surfaces intersect at the point P with those coordinates (shown as a black sphere); the Cartesian coordinates of P are roughly (0.707, -1.225, 1.414). | | coordinate surfaces | sphere | cone | plane | Cartesian coordinates | Cartesian coordinate system | Cartesian coordinates | atan2 | Geographic coordinate system | geography | physics | A point plotted with cylindrical coordinates | | Cylindrical coordinate system | polar coordinate system | geographic coordinate system | latitude | longitude | Cartesian coordinate system | rotational matrices | triple integral | partial differential equations | Laplace's equation | Helmholtz equation | separation of variables | spherical harmonics | hyperspherical coordinates | Eric W.
