Spherical coordinates are a three-dimensional coordinate system that represents points in space using three values: the radial distance from the origin, the polar angle from the positive z-axis, and the azimuthal angle in the xy-plane. This system is particularly useful for dealing with problems involving symmetry and spherical shapes, allowing for easier integration and visualization of complex 3D structures.
congrats on reading the definition of spherical coordinates. now let's actually learn it.
