Polar Coordinates: A two-dimensional coordinate system where each point is determined by a distance from a reference point (the origin) and an angle from a reference direction.
Spherical Coordinates: A three-dimensional coordinate system that extends polar coordinates with an additional angle, defining points by their distance from the origin and two angles.
Cylindrical Coordinates: $\text{A three-dimensional extension of polar coordinates, specifying points by }(\rho, \phi, z)$, where $\rho$ is the radial distance, $\phi$ is the azimuthal angle, and $z$ is height along the z-axis.
