z-intercept
Third axis crossing point
The z-intercept is the point where a line or surface crosses the z-axis in three-dimensional coordinate geometry.
At this point, both x and y equal zero: Find the z-intercept by setting x and y to zero and solving for z.
The term parallels x-intercept and y-intercept for the other axes.
