Study Notes
Cartesian Coordinate Systems
- Four different coordinate systems are shown, each illustrating the orientation of the x, y, and z axes.
- Each diagram indicates the direction of the z-axis using a circle and the text "z into the page," "z out of the page," or "z points south."
- In the example labeled (1), z is into the page.
- In the example labeled (2), z is into the page.
- In the example labeled (3), z is east; y is into the page.
- In the example labeled (4), x is out of the page; z is south.
