  1. In three dimensions it is the point (0, 0, 0) where the x, y and z axis cross: Cartesian Coordinates. Illustrated definition of Origin: The starting point. On a number line it is 0 On a two-dimensional graph it is where the X axis and Y axis...

  2. Definition of Origin in Math. In mathematics, especially in the field of coordinate geometry; origin is said to be the initial point or the starting point from where we begin our calculations or measurements. On a ruler, the 0 is from where we start our measurements; hence it is said to be the origin of the scale.

  3. In mathematics, the origin of a Euclidean space is a special point, usually denoted by the letter O, used as a fixed point of reference for the geometry of the surrounding space. In physical problems, the choice of origin is often arbitrary, meaning any choice of origin will ultimately give the same answer.

  4. Origin. The origin is a point where something begins or emanates from. In mathematics, the origin usually refers to a point on a number line or in a coordinate system. Number lines. On a number line, the origin is at position zero, as shown below: Each point on a number line corresponds to a real number and their positions relative to the origin.

  5. Nov 21, 2023 · An origin is a single point of reference for a coordinate system, from which all other values can be measured. Its exact definition depends on the coordinates...

  6. 5 days ago · Origin. The central point in polar coordinates, or the point with all zero coordinates (0, ..., 0) in Cartesian coordinates . In three dimensions, the x -axis, y -axis , and z -axis meet at the origin.

  7. The origin is the point where they intersect. This point has the coordinates 0,0 and is usually labelled with the letter O.
