Question

what is right hand cartesian system?

Open in App

Solution

The right hand cartesian system orientation is where the xy-plane is horizontal and the z-axis points up.
The x- and the y-axis form a positively oriented two-dimensional coordinate system in the xy-plane if observed from above the xy-plane.
