[[Image:Cartesian coordinate surfaces.png|thumb|240px|right| The [[Coordinate system#Coordinate surface|coordinate surfaces]] of the Cartesian coordinates (''x'', ''y'', ''z''). The ''z''-axis is vertical and the ''x''-axis is highlighted in green. Thus, the red plane shows the points with ''x''=1, the blue plane shows the points with ''z''=1, and the yellow plane shows the points with ''y''=-1. The three surfaces intersect at the point '''P''' (shown as a black sphere) with the Cartesian coordinates (1, -1, 1).]]
 
===Generalizations===
One can generalize the concept of Cartesian coordinates to allow axes that are not perpendicular to each other, and/or different units along each axis. In that case, each coordinate is obtained by projecting the point onto one axis along a direction that is parallel to the other axis (or, in general, to the hyperplane defined by all the other axes). In those '''oblique coordinate systems''' the computations of distances and angles is more complicated than in standard Cartesian systems, and many standard formulas (such as the Pythagorean formula for the distance) do not hold.
