2Cartesian coordinate system — Illustration of a Cartesian coordinate plane. Four points are marked and labeled with their coordinates: (2, 3) in green, (−3, 1) in red, (−1.5, −2.5) in blue, and the origin (0, 0) in purple. A Cartesian coordinate system specifies each point… …
3hand tool — any tool or implement designed for manual operation. * * * Introduction any of the implements used by craftsmen in manual operations, such as chopping, chiseling, sawing, filing, or forging. Complementary tools, often needed as auxiliaries to… …
4Euclidean vector — This article is about the vectors mainly used in physics and engineering to represent directed quantities. For mathematical vectors in general, see Vector (mathematics and physics). For other uses, see vector. Illustration of a vector …
5Rotation matrix — In linear algebra, a rotation matrix is a matrix that is used to perform a rotation in Euclidean space. For example the matrix rotates points in the xy Cartesian plane counterclockwise through an angle θ about the origin of the Cartesian… …
6Mouse (computing) — A computer mouse with the most common standard features: two buttons and a scroll wheel, which can also act as a third button In computing, a mouse is a pointing device that functions by detecting two dimensional motion relative to its supporting …
7Gear — For the gear like device used to drive a roller chain, see Sprocket. This article is about mechanical gears. For other uses, see Gear (disambiguation). Two meshing gears transmitting rotational motion. Note that the smaller gear is rotating… …
8Mathematics and Physical Sciences — ▪ 2003 Introduction Mathematics Mathematics in 2002 was marked by two discoveries in number theory. The first may have practical implications; the second satisfied a 150 year old curiosity. Computer scientist Manindra Agrawal of the… …
9Quaternions and spatial rotation — Unit quaternions provide a convenient mathematical notation for representing orientations and rotations of objects in three dimensions. Compared to Euler angles they are simpler to compose and avoid the problem of gimbal lock. Compared to… …
10Cross product — This article is about the cross product of two vectors in three dimensional Euclidean space. For other uses, see Cross product (disambiguation). In mathematics, the cross product, vector product, or Gibbs vector product is a binary operation on… …
