Category:Y-Axis

This category contains results about the $y$-axis.
Definitions specific to this category can be found in Definitions/Y-Axis.

In a cartesian coordinate system, the $y$-axis is the one usually depicted and visualised as going from "bottom" to "top" of the paper (or screen).

It consists of all the points in the real vector space in question (usually either $\R^2$ or $\R^3$) at which all the elements of its coordinates but $y$ are zero.
