you are going 2 units on the x-axis (coming towards you)

then going 4 units on the y-axis (to the right)

finally, you're going 4 units up on the z-axis...this last part has to be 4 because that's the only thing that matches

so that's why the ordered triple is (2,4,4)

ideally this plot would be interactive so you can spin it around and see exactly how high on the z-axis this point is
