Cartesian coordinates in three dimensions A three dimensional Cartesian coordinate system‚ with origin O and axis lines X‚ Y and Z‚ oriented as shown by the arrows. The tick marks on the axes are one length unit apart. The black dot shows the point with coordinatesX = 2‚ Y = 3‚ and Z = 4‚ or (2‚3‚4). Choosing a Cartesian coordinate system for a three-dimensional space means choosing an ordered triplet of lines (axes)‚ any two of them being perpendicular; a single unit of length for all three
