Conjunctions joint sentences and coƶrdinate terms. Rev. R. Morris. Coƶrdinate adjectives, adjectives disconnected as regards ane another, but referring equally to the same subject.
– Coƶrdinate conjunctions, conjunctions joining independent propositions. Rev. R. Morris.
Co*ƶr"di*nate , v. t. [imp. & p.p. Coƶrdinated; p.pr. & vb.n. Coƶrdinating.]
1. To make coƶrdinate; to put in the same order or rank; as, to coƶrdinate ideas in classification.

1. A thing of the same rank with another thing; one two or more persons or things of equal rank, authority, or importance. It has neither coƶrdinate nor analogon; it is absolutely one. Coleridge.
2. pl. (Math.)
Definition: Lines, or other elements of reference, by means of which the position of any point, as of a curve, is defined with respect to certain fixed lines, or planes, called coƶrdinate axes and coƶrdinate planes. See Abscissa.
Note: Coƶrdinates are of several kinds, consisting in some of the different cases, of the following elements, namely: (a) (Geom. of Two Dimensions) The abscissa and ordinate of any point, taken together; as the abscissa PY and ordinate PX of the point P (Fig. 2, referred to the coƶrdinate axes AY and AX. (b) Any radius vector PA (Fig. 1), together with its angle of inclination to a fixed line, APX, by which any point A in the same plane is referred to that fixed line, and a fixed point in it, called the pole, P. (c) (Geom. of Three Dimensions) Any three lines, or distances, PB, PC, PD (Fig. 3), taken parallel to three coƶrdinate axes, AX, AY, AZ, and measured from the corresponding coƶrdinate fixed planes, YAZ, XAZ, XAY, to any point in space, P, whose position is thereby determined with respect to these planes and axes. (d) A radius vector, the angle which it makes with a fixed plane, and the angle which its projection on the plane makes with a fixed line line in the plane, by which means any point in space at the free extremity of the radius vector is referred to that fixed plane and fixed line, and a fixed point in that line, the pole of the radius vector. Cartesian coƶrdinates. See under Cartesian.
– Geographical coƶrdinates, the latitude and longitude of a place, by which its relative situation on the globe is known. The height of the above the sea level constitutes a third coƶrdinate.
– Polar coƶrdinates, coƶrdinates made up of a radius vector and its angle of inclination to another line, or a line and plane; as those defined in (b) and (d) above.
– Rectangular coƶrdinates, coƶrdinates the axes of which intersect at right angles.
– Rectilinear coƶrdinates, coƶrdinates made up of right lines. Those defined in (a) and (c) above are called also Cartesian coƶrdinates.
– Trigonometrical or Spherical coƶrdinates, elements of reference, by means of which the position of a point on the surface of a sphere may be determined with respect to two great circles of the sphere.
– Trilinear coƶrdinates, coƶrdinates of a point in a plane, consisting of the three ratios which the three distances of the point from three fixed lines have one to another.
