Cartesian Coordinate System
cartesian coordinate system
Points are typically named using capital letters, such as point A, point B, or point C. When representing points in a coordinate system, they can also be denoted by their coordinates in parentheses, like (x, y) in a two-dimensional space. The choice of naming convention often depends on the context, such as geometry, graphs, or maps. Consistency in naming is key for clarity in communication.
None. Points do not have dimensions.

Points.
Zero. Points are zero dimensional objects. Straight lines are one dimensional objects. Planes and surfaces are two dimensional objects. Volumes and polyhedra are examples of three dimensional objects.
Lines! Yes, they are one-dimensional. Points are zero dimensional, planes are two-dimensional, and prisms and such are three dimensional.
Space is a boundless, three dimensional set of all points. Collinear is a set of points that are all on the same line and is 3 or more points.
yes, it does
Yes, the Cartesian coordinate system can have three dimensions, commonly referred to as 3D. In this system, points are represented by three coordinates (x, y, z), which correspond to their positions along the three perpendicular axes: the x-axis, y-axis, and z-axis. This allows for the representation of objects and points in three-dimensional space, making it useful in fields such as physics, engineering, and computer graphics.
In geometry, a line is somply a collection of points. However, when naming a line, a line is nemed using two of its points.
Naming a line segment involves naming its two endpoints, while naming a line involves any two points on the line. A line segment is a portion of a line, so it has a specific length and is finite, whereas a line extends infinitely in both directions.
