  coordinate
       
           One member of a tuple of numbers which defines
          the position of a point in some space.  Commonly used
          coordinate systems have as many coordinates as their are
          dimensions in the space, e.g. a pair for two dimensions.  The
          most common coordinate system is Cartesian coordinates,
          probably followed by polar coordinates.

  Coordinate \Co*["o]r"di*nate\, n.
     1. A thing of the same rank with another thing; one two or
        more persons or things of equal rank, authority, or
        importance.
        [1913 Webster]
  
              It has neither co["o]rdinate nor analogon; it is

        [1913 Webster]
  
     2. pl. (Math.) Lines, or other elements of reference, by
        means of which the position of any point, as of a curve,
        is defined with respect to certain fixed lines, or planes,
        called co["o]rdinate axes and co["o]rdinate planes. See
        Abscissa.
  
     Note: Co["o]rdinates are of several kinds, consisting in some
           of the different cases, of the following elements,
           namely:
        (a) (Geom. of Two Dimensions) The abscissa and ordinate of
            any point, taken together; as the abscissa PY and
            ordinate PX of the point P (Fig. 2, referred to the
            co["o]rdinate axes AY and AX.
        (b) Any radius vector PA (Fig. 1), together with its angle
            of inclination to a fixed line, APX, by which any
            point A in the same plane is referred to that fixed
            line, and a fixed point in it, called the pole, P.
        (c) (Geom. of Three Dimensions) Any three lines, or
            distances, PB, PC, PD (Fig. 3), taken parallel to
            three co["o]rdinate axes, AX, AY, AZ, and measured
            from the corresponding co["o]rdinate fixed planes,
            YAZ, XAZ, XAY, to any point in space, P, whose
            position is thereby determined with respect to these
            planes and axes.
        (d) A radius vector, the angle which it makes with a fixed
            plane, and the angle which its projection on the plane
            makes with a fixed line line in the plane, by which
            means any point in space at the free extremity of the
            radius vector is referred to that fixed plane and
            fixed line, and a fixed point in that line, the pole
            of the radius vector.
            [1913 Webster]
  
     Cartesian co["o]rdinates. See under Cartesian.
  
     Geographical co["o]rdinates, the latitude and longitude of
        a place, by which its relative situation on the globe is
        known. The height of the above the sea level constitutes a
        third co["o]rdinate.
  
     Polar co["o]rdinates, co["o]rdinates made up of a radius
        vector and its angle of inclination to another line, or a
        line and plane; as those defined in
        (b) and
        (d) above.
  
     Rectangular co["o]rdinates, co["o]rdinates the axes of
        which intersect at right angles.
  
     Rectilinear co["o]rdinates, co["o]rdinates made up of right
        lines. Those defined in
        (a) and
        (c) above are called also Cartesian co["o]rdinates.
  
     Trigonometrical co["o]rdinates or Spherical
     co["o]rdinates, elements of reference, by means of which the
        position of a point on the surface of a sphere may be
        determined with respect to two great circles of the
        sphere.
  
     Trilinear co["o]rdinates, co["o]rdinates of a point in a
        plane, consisting of the three ratios which the three
        distances of the point from three fixed lines have one to
        another.
