The reason why time is regarded as the 4th dimension is that in relativity, we have to include the time coordinate in describing events fully in space along with the time, called the space-time coordinate.

Although time comes in as a fourth dimension, it is treated differently than the spatial dimensions.
Minkowski space hence differs in important respects from four-dimensional Euclidean space. ... But special relativity provides a new invariant, called the spacetime interval, which combines distances in space and in time.

Hope this helps you friend
Thanks ✌️ ✌️
