Question

Is the cartesian form the same as the rectangular form?

Answer 1

Checking if the cartesian form is the same as the rectangular form.

The cartesian form is a system that helps us in representing a point, a line, or a plane in two dimensional or three-dimensional plane. It is in reference to the x-axis, y-axis, and z-axis.

whereas, the rectangular form is the representation of complex numbers in the form $a+ib.$ This can also be represented in the two-dimensional or three-dimensional plane by finding out $r=\sqrt{a^2+b^2}and\tan \left(\theta \right)$.

Therefore, both forms are just two different names of the same system.

Hence, the cartesian form is the same as the rectangular form.
