Definitions

Items directly below are considered to be strictly Mathematical / imagined.

active version ( Galilean)
     Starting with only one point when coincident systems.

Cartesian coordinate system
     A standard x,y,z grid.

coincident coordinate systems
     Two Cartesian coordinate systems occupying the same mathematically imagined space at the same time.

Galilean transformation
Is a set of mathematical equations, to numerically characterize, the corresponding coordinate points from one frame (coordinate system) to another.

passive version ( Galilean )
     Starting with two points when coincident systems.

point
     A specific x,y,z location of a Cartesian coordinate system
Wherein, the coordinate values are determined, not through the naming of them, but by their relative distance from their origin.

transformation
A coordinate transformation is a conversion from one system to another, to describe the same space. (wiki).

Whereas space itself is considered to be a duality in characteristics...possessing both an imagined mathematical space aka Euclidian space and a corresponding physical space.

Euclidian space
     The imagined mathematical points of an imagined mathematical Cartesian coordinate system.

Mathematically, any point is suitable as origin, as well as any delineation value for a unit length. Even a rotational variance between two Cartesian coordinate systems can be dealt with exact mathematical precision.

physical space     [ Not pertinent to this math challenge. ]
     The actual physical locations in space, each unique location, of which can be assigned a mathematical, one to one relationship, to a corresponding point in an imagined mathematical Cartesian coordinate system.
