If:
a) a piece of paper is a plane in the X & Y axes, b) and the Z axis is a pencil that is stabbed straight down through the paper at the point where the X & Y axes meet, then
c) the coordinates of the center of the hole in the paper are _______.
Hint: help yourself solve this problem by making a model. Draw a set of X and Y axes on a blank sheet of paper. Mark the zero point, then stab this point with a pencil (that represents your Z axis).
a) (0,0,0)
b) (1,1,1)
c) (1,1,0)
d) (1,0,1)

the x and y axes meet at 0,0, so if you're adding another axis at that point, the only possible answer is a
