Lesson 13.5 Three Dimensional Graphing
What is 3 dimensional Graphing? • There are 3 axes that are mutually perpendicular. • x-axis, y-axis & z-axis • Ordered pairs are (x, y, z)
Graph the point (2, 3, 5). • Go 2 spaces in the positive x-direction, • Then go 3 spaces in the positive y-direction. • Lastly, go 5 spaces in the positive z-direction.
Tips when graphing in 3-D… • Create a rectangular box to locate and visualize the point. • The sides of the box are drawn parallel to the axes. • Graph the point P (3, 4, 12)
Theorem 126: • If P = (x1, y1, z1) and Q = (x2, y2, z2) are any two points, then the distance between them can be found with the formula:
