2. Aircraft principal axes - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aircraft_principal_axes

   The yaw axis has its origin at the center of gravity and is directed towards the bottom of the aircraft, perpendicular to the wings and to the fuselage reference line. Motion about this axis is called yaw. A positive yawing motion moves the nose of the aircraft to the right. [1] [2] The rudder is the primary control of yaw. [3]

3. Reflection symmetry - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reflection_symmetry

   In 2-dimensional space, there is a line/axis of symmetry, in 3-dimensional space, there is a plane of symmetry. An object or figure which is indistinguishable from its transformed image is called mirror symmetric. In conclusion, a line of symmetry splits the shape in half and those halves should be identical.

4. Reflection (mathematics) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reflection_(mathematics)

   A reflection through an axis. In mathematics, a reflection (also spelled reflexion) [1] is a mapping from a Euclidean space to itself that is an isometry with a hyperplane as the set of fixed points; this set is called the axis (in dimension 2) or plane (in dimension 3) of reflection.

5. Coordinate system - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coordinate_system

   Another common coordinate system for the plane is the polar coordinate system. [7] A point is chosen as the pole and a ray from this point is taken as the polar axis. For a given angle θ, there is a single line through the pole whose angle with the polar axis is θ (measured counterclockwise from the

6. List of planar symmetry groups - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_planar_symmetry_groups

   The 17 wallpaper groups, with finite fundamental domains, are given by International notation, orbifold notation, and Coxeter notation, classified by the 5 Bravais lattices in the plane: square, oblique (parallelogrammatic), hexagonal (equilateral triangular), rectangular (centered rhombic), and rhombic (centered rectangular).

7. Multiview orthographic projection - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multiview_orthographic...

   Customarily, two rays of sight are chosen for each of the three axes of the object's coordinate system; that is, parallel to each axis, the object may be viewed in one of 2 opposite directions, making for a total of 6 orthographic projections (or "views") of the object: [1] Along a vertical axis (often the y-axis): The top and bottom views ...

8. Euclidean planes in three-dimensional space - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Euclidean_planes_in_three...

   This familiar equation for a plane is called the general form of the equation of the plane or just the plane equation. [6] Thus for example a regression equation of the form y = d + ax + cz (with b = −1) establishes a best-fit plane in three-dimensional space when there are two explanatory variables.

9. Plane (mathematics) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plane_(mathematics)

   In mathematics, a plane is a two-dimensional space or flat surface that extends indefinitely. A plane is the two-dimensional analogue of a point (zero dimensions), a line (one dimension) and three-dimensional space. When working exclusively in two-dimensional Euclidean space, the definite article is used, so the Euclidean plane refers to the ...
