⭐ Core Definition: Coordinate (vector space)

In mathematics, a set B of elements of a vector space V is called a basis (pl.: bases) if every element of V can be written in a unique way as a finite linear combination of elements of B. The coefficients of this linear combination are referred to as components or coordinates of the vector with respect to B. The elements of a basis are called basis vectors.

Equivalently, a set B is a basis if its elements are linearly independent and every element of V is a linear combination of elements of B. In other words, a basis is a linearly independent spanning set.

Coordinate (vector space) in the context of Real coordinate plane

In mathematics, the real coordinate space or real coordinate n-space, of dimension n, denoted R or , is the set of all ordered n-tuples of real numbers, that is the set of all sequences of n real numbers, also known as coordinate vectors.Special cases are called the real line R, the real coordinate plane R, and the real coordinate three-dimensional space R.With component-wise addition and scalar multiplication, it is a real vector space.

The coordinates over any basis of the elements of a real vector space form a real coordinate space of the same dimension as that of the vector space. Similarly, the Cartesian coordinates of the points of a Euclidean space of dimension n, E (Euclidean line, E; Euclidean plane, E; Euclidean three-dimensional space, E) form a real coordinate space of dimension n.
