vertical plane

Wall-like geometric surface

A vertical plane is a flat surface oriented perpendicular to the ground, extending upward and downward rather than lying flat.

In geometry and architecture, vertical planes intersect horizontal planes at right angles: The wall forms a vertical plane dividing the room.

In anatomy, vertical planes divide the body into front and back or left and right sections.
