What are X, Y, and Z coordinates?
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 . The reference point is called the origin whose coordinate points are 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.
