Surface name Parameters Surface equation Description
py x0 S(x) = x - x_0 Plane perpendicular to x-axis at x = x0
pz y0 S(y) = y - y_0 Plane perpendicular to y-axis at y = y0
px z0 S(z) = z - z_0 Plane perpendicular to z-axis at z = z0
plane A, B, C, D S(x,y,z) = Ax+ By + Cz - D General plane in parametric form
plane x1, y1, y1, x2, y2, y2, x3, y3, y3 General plane defined by three points
