The representation of the Euclidean plane as the Cartesian product \(\mathbb R^2\) allows us to decompose any vector of the plane into two coordinates, its abscissa and its ordinate. This decomposition is linked to a particular and natural “representation...

Descartes’ analytical method, which allows the Euclidean plane to be represented as the Cartesian product $ \mathbb{R}^2 $ through the theory of real numbers, also makes it possible to represent Euclidean space as the Cartesian product $ \mathbb{R}^3 =...

Vector angles are the usual oriented angles of Euclidean plane geometry. Thanks to the resources of naive set theory, they can be defined purely algebraically using an equivalence relation and the vectorial rotations of the plane. The operation of composing rotations...
