The axes be shifted without rotation, so that the equation does not contain terms in and constant term, then the point is

If by rotating the coordinate axes without translating the origin, the expression becomes then

If by rotating the coordinate axes without translating the origin, the expression becomes then

If by rotating the coordinate axes without translating the origin, the expression becomes then

The angle through which the coordinates axes be rotated so that term in the equation may be missing, is

If and are the coordinates of the same point referred to two sets of rectangular axes with the same origin and if becomes where are independent of then

If the axes are rotated through an angle of in the clockwise direction, the coordinates of a point in the new system are then its original coordinates

Shift the origin to a suitable point so that the equation will not contain term in and the constant term, then the origin is
