Solution

Coordinate Points

Coordinate points refer to the position of an object in a 2-dimensional or 3-dimensional plane. The Cartesian coordinate system is represented as x,y,z. The reference point is called the origin whose coordinate points are 0,0,0 where the three planes intersect. The X, Y, and Z axes are mutually perpendicular.

The X coordinate refers to the distance of a point on the X-axis from the origin.

The Y coordinate refers to the distance of a point on the Y-axis from the origin.

The Z coordinate refers to the distance of a point on the Z-axis from the origin.
