Coordinates as distances from coordinate planes in 3 space.

GRAPHING ERROR: It needs to be noted that this image is not an accurate depiction of an orthogonal 3-d coordinate system. The right angle of the y-z plane, when rotated in the third dimension should become projected as skewed. It should no longer project as a 90-degree angle (as this image shows). A cube, for example, when looked at from one corner projects as a hexagon with 60-degree angles. According to this erroneous image, a cube that continued rotation to the corner would result in a six-sided irregular hexagon that maintains a projection containing 90-degree angles. In other words, what is being depicted in this erroneous image is not orthogonal angles, but is instead contains skewed non-orthogonal angles that project their x-y plane faces as 90-degree angles.
(Please remove this error notice after the image has been corrected.)
