Various geometrical figures in three-dimensional space can be described relative to a set of mutually orthogonal axes Ox, Oy, Oz, and a point can be represented by a set of rectangular coordinates (x, y, z).
The Euclidean distance between two points P = (x,y,z) and Q = (a,b,c) in space is defined as d(P,Q) = q (x −a)2 +(y − b)2 +(z −c)2. Note that this is a definition not a result. It is only motivated by Pythagoras theorem. We will prove the later. 4 Problem: Find the distance d(P,Q) between the points P = (1,2,5) and Q = (−3,4,7)
the path coordinate i.e. the distance between two points r(s) and r(s + Δs) is equal to Δs. The two motions introduced earlier simply correspond to two particles moving according to s 1(t) = t and s 2(t) = t2, respectively. Thus, r 1(t) = r(s 1(t)) and r 2(t) = r(s 2(t)).

5.1 Introduction. In this chapter we revise Cartesian coordinates, axial systems, the distance between two points in space, and the area of simple 2D shapes. It also covers polar, spherical polar and cylindrical coordinate systems.
This chapter uses coordinates to describe points and lines in two dimensions. When you have completed it, you should be able to find the distance between two points find the mid-point of a line segment, given the coordinates of its end points find the gradient of a line segment, given the coordinates of its end points
LINEAR ALGEBRA AND VECTOR ANALYSIS. MATH 22B. Unit 10: Coordinates. Introduction. 10.1. Algebra is a powerful tool in geometry. In this lecture we circle back to the concept of coordinates and look also at other coordinate systems. We have introduced space as column vectors like [1; 2; 3]T .
