Using with 3d transforms, we can move element to x-axis, y-axis and z-axis, Below example clearly specifies how the element will rotate.

Methods of 3D transforms

Below methods are used to call 3D transforms −

Sr.No. Value & Description
1

matrix3d(n,n,n,n,n,n,n,n,n,n,n,n,n,n,n,n)

Used to transforms the element by using 16 values of matrix
2

translate3d(x,y,z)

Used to transforms the element by using x-axis,y-axis and z-axis
3

translateX(x)

Used to transforms the element by using x-axis
4

translateY(y)

Used to transforms the element by using y-axis
5

translateZ(z)

Used to transforms the element by using y-axis
6

scaleX(x)

Used to scale transforms the element by using x-axis
7

scaleY(y)

Used to scale transforms the element by using y-axis
8

scaleY(y)

Used to transforms the element by using z-axis
9

rotateX(angle)

Used to rotate transforms the element by using x-axis
10

rotateY(angle)

Used to rotate transforms the element by using y-axis
11

rotateZ(angle)

Used to rotate transforms the element by using z-axis

X-axis 3D transforms

The following an example shows the x-axis 3D transforms.

Live Demo 
<html>
   <head>
      <style>
         div {
            width: 200px;
            height: 100px;
            background-color: pink;
            border: 1px solid black;
         }
         div#myDiv {
            -webkit-transform: rotateX(150deg); 
            
            /* Safari */
            transform: rotateX(150deg); 
            
            /* Standard syntax */
         }
      </style>
   </head>

   <body>
   
      <div>
         tutorials point.com
      </div>
      
      <p>Rotate X-axis</p>
      
      <div id = "myDiv">
         tutorials point.com.
      </div>
      
   </body>
</html>

It will produce the following result −

Y-axis 3D transforms

The following an example shows the y-axis 3D transforms −

Live Demo 
<html>
   <head>
      <style>
         div {
            width: 200px;
            height: 100px;
            background-color: pink;
            border: 1px solid black;
         }
         div#yDiv {
            -webkit-transform: rotateY(150deg); 
            
            /* Safari */
            transform: rotateY(150deg); 
            
            /* Standard syntax */
         }
      </style>
   </head>

   <body>
   
      <div>
         tutorials point.com
      </div>
      
      <p>Rotate Y axis</p>
      
      <div id = "yDiv">
         tutorials point.com.
      </div>
      
   </body>
</html>

It will produce the following result −

Z-axis 3D transforms

The following an example shows the Z-axis 3D transforms −

Live Demo 
<html>
   <head>
      <style>
         div {
            width: 200px;
            height: 100px;
            background-color: pink;
            border: 1px solid black;
         }
         div#zDiv {
            -webkit-transform: rotateZ(90deg); 
            
            /* Safari */
            transform: rotateZ(90deg); 
            
            /* Standard syntax */
         }
      </style>
   </head>

   <body>
      <div>
         tutorials point.com
      </div>
      
      <p>rotate Z axis</p>
      
      <div id = "zDiv">
         tutorials point.com.
      </div>
   </body>
</html>

It will produce the following result −
