It is possible, but you need to use three axes.

How do you change centimeters to cubic centimeters?
Impossible to change a volume measure to a length measure
Why is it impossible to measure a line or a ray?
It is impossible to measure a line because a line has no beginning or end point. You can only measure a line sector. A ray has a beginning point, however, but goes on in one direction endlessly.
How many litres in a meter?
This is an impossible question to answer as litres and metres are not compatible measurements. You can measure litres in square metres.
Explain how a regular polygon with an angle measure of 135 degrees be used by itself to make a tessellation?
It is extremely difficult to explain how since it is, in fact, impossible!
A point has zero dimension and a line has 2?
You are apparently referring to the Cartesian system of assigning x, y, and z coordinates to map out the relationship of objects in space. a point has to occur somewhere - and to define its location in two dimensions (like in a floor plan) you need to provide an x and a y dimension. If you want to describe the location of a point in three dimensional space you also need to provide a height above the ground - the z coordinate. A line is simply the direct path between two points in space. Thus, to draw a line you need two points. If you are asking how to measure these with a ruler, a point has no dimension. A line has only 1 dimension.
The Cartesian coordinate system can be used to measure three-dimensional objects?
TRUE APEX ftw
Can you use a cartesian coordinate to measure three dimensional objects?
Yes! By expanding the system to 3D!
How do get the exact coordinate in the quadrant without estimating?
Measure it.
What are the modern uses of coordinate measuring machines?
CMM are used for precise measurement of parts manually or autonomously. CMM are capable to measure complex geometry and compound angles that would otherwise be impossible to measure. Some CMM can measure a part and convert it into a 3D image. CMM are common in manufacturing enviroments.
What is the origin in the Cartesian coordinate system?
It is the point, denoted by (0,0) from which all distances are measured. They are measured in a pair or orthogonal directions, that is, two directions that are perpendicular to each other. Conventionally, one is termed horizontal and the measure of the distance along that direction is denoted by x. The other axis is termed vertical and measures along it are denoted by y.
What is position in a graph?
The position on a graph or a Cartesian plane is the measure of its edges with respect to the co-ordinates of the graph.
What temperature is impossible to measure?
1001k
How many inches are in 20 degrees?
An inch is a measure of length, while a degree is a measure of angle, so it is impossible to convert inches to degrees.
Can you measure a limnic eruption?
sorry its impossible
How many milliliters is 350 centimeters?
Impossible. A measure of length can never be a measure of volume.
How do you change centimeters to cubic centimeters?
Impossible to change a volume measure to a length measure
Are celestial bodies identified by a 3 axis coordinate XYZ just as terrestrial locations have Latitude and Longitude X and Y cordinates?
Not quite. Instead of being described in Cartesian coordinates such as X, Y, and Z, celestial objects are described in an angular coordinate system sometimes called "rho, theta". These are letters of the Greek alphabet often used to measure angles.We still use three coordinates representing the number of degrees around the ecliptic a celestial object is, and the number of degrees north or south of the ecliptic plane. The third coordinate is a distance. These are similar to the bearing, elevation and range coordinates that you might use in gunnery.
