Spherical Coordinates by Mathieu Blossier
Loading the math board and drawing, please wait…
This example demonstrates the spherical coordinate system. The spherical coordinate system is a three-dimensional coordinate system used to represent points in three-dimensional space. By examining the commands in the construction summary, one can understand how to use GeoGebra to draw figures in the spherical coordinate system. The core mathematical concepts involved include three-dimensional coordinates, vectors, and functions. Suitable for high school students and teachers.
