Point

A point marks an exact position. It has no length, width or thickness. In coordinates it is written (x, y) or (x, y, z).

📐 Formula

Distance from the origin: OP = √(x² + y² + z²)

✏️ Worked example

P(3, 4, 0): OP = √(9 + 16 + 0) = √25 = 5 units.

🌍 Where it is used

GPS positions, pixels on a screen and map pins are points.
