Precalculus Lesson 8.6 Three-Dimensional Cartesian Coordinate System
What you’ll learn about • Three-Dimensional Cartesian Coordinates • Distances and Midpoint Formula • Equation of a Sphere • Planes and Other Surfaces • Vectors in Space • Lines in Space … and why This is the analytic geometry of our physical world.
The Coordinate Planes Divide Space into Eight Octants Octant I is the octant in which all three coordinates are positive.
