<p>the position of any point in <a href="page.php?w=three-dimensional_space">three-dimensional space</a> can be specified by three Cartesian coordinates, which are the signed distances from the point to three mutually perpendicular planes. More generally,  Cartesian coordinates specify the point in an -dimensional <a href="page.php?w=Euclidean_space">Euclidean space</a> for any <a href="page.php?w=dimension">dimension</a> . These coordinates are the signed distances from the point to  mutually perpendicular fixed <a href="page.php?w=hyperplane">hyperplane</a>s.</p><p>
