Best Answer

Cartesian coordinates are plotted on the Cartesian plane which consist of a horizontal x axis number line and a vertical y axis number line whereas both axes are perpendicular to each other and meet at right angles at the point of origin whose coordinates are at (0, 0)

What are the 3 coordinates in cartesian plane?

You do not have 3 coordinates in the Cartesian plane. The Cartesian plane is a plane and is therefore 2 dimensional. In 2 dimensional space you require only 2 coordinates. 3 coordinates are required to locate a point in 3-dimensional space but then it cannot be a Cartesian PLANE.
