coplanar
This term is a technical descriptor used almost exclusively in mathematics, physics, and engineering to describe a specific spatial relationship. It conveys a sense of absolute flatness and alignment, where multiple objects share a single two-dimensional slice of three-dimensional space.
Because it is a categorical geometric property, the word functions as an absolute adjective. An object cannot be more or less coplanar than another; it either exists within the same plane or it does not. Consequently, it is never used in comparative or superlative forms.
