Tap to reveal answer

Answer

The coordinate axes are three mutually perpendicular lines, typically called the x-axis, y-axis, and z-axis, that intersect at the origin. They are denoted as XOX\mathrm{X}^{\prime} \mathrm{OX}, YOY\mathrm{Y}^{\prime} \mathrm{OY}, and ZOZ\mathrm{Z}^{\prime} \mathrm{OZ}.
