Copy of Cylindrical Coordinates: Dynamic Illustrator

[b]Students:[/b][br][br]You can use this applet to help you better visualize plotting points in 3-space on a CYLINDER. (Hence, the name [i]cylindrical coordinates[/i]). [br][br]Cylindrical coordinates are expressed in the form [math]\left(r,\theta,z\right)[/math]. [br][br][b]For [/b][math]\theta[/math][b], this applet uses units of RADIANS. [/b][b][br][br][color=#ff7700]The ORANGE POINT = THE POINT YOU'RE PLOTTING. [/color][/b][br][br]How can we describe what each of the 3 coordinates tells us? [br](Explain as best you can in your own words).
