Cylindrical coordinates are a three-dimensional coordinate system that extends polar coordinates by adding a height dimension. In this system, points are represented by the radial distance from a reference axis, the angular coordinate about that axis, and the height along the axis. This representation is particularly useful for problems involving symmetry around an axis, such as those often encountered in Bessel's Equation and Bessel Functions.
congrats on reading the definition of Cylindrical Coordinates. now let's actually learn it.
