Descartes and His Coordinate System
Every time you graph an equation on a Cartesian coordinate system, you are using the work of
Ren Descartes. Descartes, a French mathematician and philosopher, was born in La Haye,
France (now named in his honor) on March 31, 1596. His parents taught him at home until he
was 8 years old, when he entered the Jesuit college of La Flche. There he continued his studiesuntil he graduated at age 18.
Descartes was an outstanding student at La Flche, especially in mathematics. Because of his
delicate health, his teachers allowed him to stay in bed until late morning. Despite missing most
of his morning classes, Descartes was able to keep up with his studies. He would continue thehabit of staying late in bed for his entire adult life.
After graduating from La Flche, Descartes traveled to Paris and eventually enrolled at theUniversity of Poitiers. He graduated with a law degree in 1616 and then enlisted in a military
school. In 1619, he joined the Bavarian army and spent the next nine years as a soldier, touring
throughout much of Europe in between military campaigns. Descartes eventually settled inHolland, where he spent most of the rest of his life. There Descartes gave up a military career
and decided on a life of mathematics and philosophy.
Descartes attempted to provide a philosophical foundation for the new mechanistic physics that
was developing from the work of Copernicus and Galileo. He divided all things into twocategoriesmind and matterand developed a dualistic philosophical system in which,although mind is subject to the will and does not follow physical laws, all matter must obey the
same mechanistic laws.
The philosophical system that Descartes developed, known as Cartesian philosophy, was based
on skepticism and asserted that all reliable knowledge must be built up by the use of reasonthrough logical analysis. Cartesian philosophy was influential in the ultimate success of the
Scientific Revolution and provides the foundation upon which most subsequent philosophicalthought is grounded.
Descartes published various treatises about philosophy and mathematics. In 1637 Descartes
published his masterwork,Discourse on the Method of Reasoning Well and Seeking Truth in theSciences. InDiscourse, Descartes sought to explain everything in terms of matter and motion.
Discourse contained three appendices, one on optics, one on meteorology, and one titledLa
Gometrie (The Geometry). InLa Gometrie, Descartes described what is now known as the
system of Cartesian Coordinates, or coordinate geometry. In Descartes's system of coordinates,
geometry and algebra were united for the first time to create what is known as analytic
geometry.

The Cartesian Coordinate System
Cartesian coordinates are used to locate a point in space by giving its relative distance from
perpendicular intersecting lines. In coordinate geometry, all points, lines, and figures are drawnin a coordinate plane. By reference to the two coordinate axes, any point, line, or figure may beprecisely located.
In Descartes's system, the first coordinate value (x-coordinate) describes where along thehorizontal axis (thex-axis) the point is located. The second coordinate value (y-coordinate)
locates the point in terms of the vertical axis (the y-axis). A point with coordinates (4, 2) islocated four units to the right of the intersection point of the two axes (point O, or the origin) and
then two units below the vertical position of the origin. In example (a) of the figure, point D is at
the coordinate location (4, 2). The coordinates for point A are (3, 2); for point B, (2, 4); and
for point C, (2, 5).
The coordinate system also makes it possible to exactly duplicate geometric figures. For
example, the triangle shown in (b) has coordinates A (3, 2), B (4, 5), and C (2, 4) that make it
possible to duplicate the triangle without reference to any drawing.
The triangle may be reproduced by using the coordinates to locate the position of the three
vertex points. The vertex points may then be connected with segments to replicate triangle ABC.More complex figures may likewise be described and duplicated with coordinates.
A straight line may also be represented on a coordinate grid. In the case of a straight line, everypoint on the line has coordinate values that must
satisfy a specific equation. The line in (c) may be expressed as y = 2x. The coordinates of everypoint on the line will satisfy the equationy = 2x, as for example, point A (1, 2) and point B (2, 4).
More complex equations are used to represent circles, ellipses, and curved lines.

Example of Cartesian Cordinates :
Cartesian coordinate system with a circle of radius 2 centered at the origin marked in red. Theequation of a circle is (x - a)
2 + (y - b)2 = r
2 where a and b are the coordinates of the center (a, b)
and ris the radius.
The invention of Cartesian coordinates in the 17th century byRen Descartes(Latinizedname:
Cartesius) revolutionized mathematics by
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.

Other Contributions
La Gometrie made Descartes famous throughout Europe. He continued to publish hisphilosophy, detailing how to acquire accurate knowledge. His philosophy is sometimes summed
up in his statement, "I think, therefore I am."
Descartes also made a number of other contributions to mathematics. He discovered the Law of
Angular Deficiency for all polyhedrons and was the first to offer a quantifiable explanation ofrainbows. InLa Gometrie, Descartes introduced a familiar mathematics symbol, a raised
number to indicate an exponent. The expression 4 4 4 4 4 may be written as 45 using
Descartes's notation. He also instituted usingx,y, andz for unknowns in an equation.
In 1649, Descartes accepted an invitation from Queen Christina to travel to Sweden to be the
royal tutor. Unfortunately for Descartes, the queen expected to be tutored while she did her
exercises at 5:00 A.M. in an unheated library. Descartes had been used to a lifetime of sleepinglate, and the new routine was much too rigorous for him. After only a few weeks of this regimen,
Descartes contracted pneumonia and died on February 11, 1650.
GEOMETRY AND THE FLY
Some mathematics historians claim it may be that Descartes's inspiration for the coordinate
system was due to his lifelong habit of staying late in bed. According to some accounts, one
morning Descartes noticed a fly walking across the ceiling of his bedroom. As he watched the
fly, Descartes began to think of how the fly's path could be described without actually tracing its
path. His further reflections about describing a path by means of mathematics led to LaGometrie and Descartes's invention of coordinate geometry.
WHO USES COORDINATES?
The system of coordinates that Descartes invented is used in many modern applications. For
example, on any map the location of a country or a city is usually given as a set of coordinates.
The location of a ship at sea is determined by longitude and latitude, which is an application of
the coordinate system to the curved surface of Earth. Computer graphic artists create figures andcomputer animation by referencing coordinates on the screen.

b) Suppose there is hedge along AB. The Mathematics Society wishes to fence up theremaining sides of the region P. Determine the length of fence required.
The remaining sides in the diagram is :
c) If a meter of fence costs RM 25.00, what is the total cost required by the MathematicsSociety to fence up region P ? It is possible for the society to carry out the fencing with
an allocation of RM 250.00. Explain your answer.
The society is impossible to carry out the fencing with an allocation of RM 250.00
The reason :
= RM 250.00 RM 25 per meter
= 10 m
RM 250.00 can only cover 10m of length.
Length of AEDCB = 12.24 m
The solution :
= 12. 24m x RM 25.00
RM 306 is needed to carry out the fencing plan
= + = 25AE = AE = 5 m

CD = 3 m AB = 7cm
BC = ( 6 4 )
BC = 2 m
AEDCB = ( 2 + 3 + 2.24 + 5 ) m
AEDCB = 12.24 m

Map have been used for thousands of years to aid travelers during their journey from one place
to another. Map can also be used to estimate distance between places. In the year 2014, a
recreation park will be constructed in town marked X on the map of Malaysia in as shown
Diagram 3 . This town has the latitude of 5 41 N and has the same latitude as the city of
Malacca.
Explore and find the distance between these two places in kilometer by using
i) The map in diagram 3Since the scale is 60 km per square,
We can approximately the distance between X and the city of Malacca by
d = 60 km x 6 square
d = 360 km
