Question

define dimension in maths

Answer 1

Hey mate here is your answer

In mathematics, the dimension of a mathematical space (or object) is informally defined as the minimum number of coordinates needed to specify any pointwithin it. Thus a line has a dimension of one because only one coordinate is needed to specify a point on it – for example, the point at 5 on a number line. A surface such as a plane or the surface of a cylinder or spherehas a dimension of two because two coordinates are needed to specify a point on it – for example, both a latitude and longitudeare required to locate a point on the surface of a sphere. The inside of a cube, a cylinder or a sphere is three-dimensional because three coordinates are needed to locate a point within these spaces.

hope it help you ^_^

A measurement of length in one direction. Examples: width, depth and height are dimensions.
