= Analytic geometry
{wiki=Analytic_geometry}
Analytic geometry, also known as coordinate geometry, is a branch of mathematics that uses algebraic principles to solve geometric problems. It involves the use of a coordinate system to represent and analyze geometric shapes and figures mathematically. Key concepts in analytic geometry include: 1. **Coordinate Systems**: The most common system is the Cartesian coordinate system, where points are represented by ordered pairs (x, y) in two dimensions or triples (x, y, z) in three dimensions.
