What is abscisa?

Answer 1

"Abscisa" is a term used in mathematics, specifically in coordinate geometry, to refer to the x-coordinate of a point in a Cartesian coordinate system. It represents the horizontal distance of the point from the vertical y-axis. In a two-dimensional space, a point is typically denoted as (x, y), where "x" is the abscisa and "y" is the ordinate.
