In Figure 1b, we have introduced an xy-coordinate system in the plane to describe the position of, the yacht. With respect to this coordinate system the position of the yacht is given, by the point P(x, y), and the course itself is the graph of the rectangular equation, 4x 4 4x 2 y 2 0, which is called a lemniscate. But representing the lemniscate in, terms of a rectangular equation in this instance has three major drawbacks., y (mi), 1, P(x, y), 1, , 1, , x (mi), , 1, , FIGURE 1, , (a) The dots give the position of markers., , (b) An equation of the curve C is 4x4 4x 2 y 2 0., , First, the equation does not define y explicitly as a function of x or x as a function, of y. You can also convince yourself that this is not the graph of a function by applying the vertical and horizontal line tests to the curve in Figure 1b (see Section 0.2)., Because of this, we cannot make direct use of many of the results for functions developed earlier. Second, the equation does not tell us when the yacht is at a given point, (x, y). Third, the equation gives no inkling as to the direction of motion of the yacht., To overcome these drawbacks when we consider the motion of an object in the, plane or plane curves that are not graphs of functions, we turn to the following representation. If (x, y) is a point on a curve in the xy-plane, we write, x f(t), , y t(t), , where f and t are functions of an auxiliary variable t with (common) domain some, interval I. These equations are called parametric equations, t is called a parameter,, and the interval I is called a parameter interval.

849, , 10.2 Plane Curves and Parametric Equations, , If we think of t on the closed interval [a, b] as representing time, then we can interpret the parametric equations in terms of the motion of a particle as follows: At t a, the particle is at the initial point ( f(a), t(a)) of the curve or trajectory C. As t increases, from t a to t b, the particle traverses the curve in a specific direction called the, orientation of the curve, eventually ending up at the terminal point ( f(b), t(b)) of, the curve. (See Figure 2.), y, , ( f(b), g(b)), , C, ( f(a), g(a)), ( f(t), g(t)), , FIGURE 2, As t increases from a to b, the particle, traces the curve from ( f(a), t(a)) to, ( f(b), t(b)) in a specific direction., , a, , t, , t, , b, , x, , 0, , Parameter interval is [a, b]., , We can also interpret the parametric equations in geometric terms as follows: We, take the line segment [a, b] and, by a process of stretching, bending, and twisting, make, it conform geometrically to the curve C., , Sketching Curves Defined by Parametric Equations, Before looking at some examples, let’s define the following term., , DEFINITION Plane Curve, A plane curve is a set C of ordered pairs (x, y) defined by the parametric equations, x f(t), , and, , y t(t), , where f and t are continuous functions on a parameter interval I., , EXAMPLE 1 Sketch the curve described by the parametric equations, x t2 4, , and, , y 2t, , 1, , t, , 2, , Solution By plotting and connecting the points (x, y) for selected values of t (Table 1),, we obtain the curve shown in Figure 3., TABLE 1, t, (x, y), , 1, , (3, 2), , 1, , 12, , 154,, , 1 2, , 0, , (4, 0), , 1, , 1, 2, , 154,, , 12, , 1, , 2, , (3, 2), , (0, 4)

We then substitute this value of t, into the first equation to obtain, 1 2, x a yb 4, 2, , x, , or, , 1 2, y 4, 4, , This is an equation of a parabola that has the x-axis as its axis of symmetry and its, vertex at (4, 0). Now observe that t 1 gives (3, 2) as the initial point of the, curve and that t 2 gives (0, 4) as the terminal point of the curve. So tracing the graph, from the initial point to the terminal point gives the desired curve, as obtained earlier., , We will adopt the convention here, just as we did with the domain of a function,, that the parameter interval for x f(t) and y t(t) will consist of all values of t for, which f(t) and t(t) are real numbers, unless otherwise noted., , EXAMPLE 2 Sketch the curves represented by, a. x 1t and y t, b. x t and y t 2, Solution, a. We eliminate the parameter t by squaring the first equation to obtain x 2 t. Substituting this value of t into the second equation, we obtain y x 2, which is an, equation of a parabola. But note that the first parametric equation implies that, t 0, so x 0. Therefore, the desired curve is the right portion of the parabola, shown in Figure 4. Finally, note that the parameter interval is [0, ⬁) , and as t, increases from 0, the desired curve starts at the initial point (0, 0) and moves, away from it along the parabola., y, , FIGURE 4, As t increases from 0, the curve, starts out at (0, 0) and follows, the right portion of the parabola, with indicated orientation., , 4, 3, 2, 1, 0, , t, , t, , Parameter interval is [0, )., , (t 0), , (t 4), , (t 1), 1 2, , x, , t, , (x, y), , 0, 1, 2, 4, , (0, 0), (1, 1), ( 12, 2), (2, 4)

10.2 Plane Curves and Parametric Equations, , 851, , b. Substituting the first equation into the second yields y x 2. Although the rectangular equation is the same as that in part (a), the curve described by the parametric equations here is different from that of part (a), as we will now see. In this, instance the parameter interval is (⬁, ⬁). Furthermore, as t increases from ⬁, to ⬁ , the curve runs along the parabola y x 2 from left to right, as you can see, by plotting the points corresponding to, say, t 1, 0, and 1. You can also see, this by examining the parametric equation x t, which tells us that x increases as, t increases.

Here, we use an angle as a parameter., , EXAMPLE 3 Describe the curves represented by the parametric equations, x a cos u, , and, , y a sin u, , a0, , with parameter intervals, a. [0, p], b.

If u 0, then x a and y 0, giving (a, 0) as the initial point on the curve. As, u increases from 0 to p, the required curve is traced out in a counterclockwise, direction, terminating at the point (a, 0). (See Figure 6a.), b. Here, the curve is a complete circle that is traced out in a counterclockwise direction, starting at (a, 0) and terminating at the same point (see Figure 6b)., c. The curve here is a circle that is traced out twice in a counterclockwise direction, starting at (a, 0) and terminating at the same point (see Figure 6c).

By the age of nine, she had, learned many languages in addition to her, native Italian, including Greek and Hebrew., At that same age, she translated into Latin, an article her tutor had written in Italian, defending higher education for women. She, then delivered it, from memory, to one of, the gatherings of intellectuals her father, hosted in their home. Agnesi developed a, deep interest in Newtonian physics, but her, primary interests became religion and, mathematics. After Agnesi wrote a book on, differential calculus, her talents attracted, the attention of Pope Benedict XIV, who, appointed her to a position at the University of Bologna. Despite being offered the, chair of mathematics at Bologna, Agnesi, left the academic world in 1752 so that she, could fulfill a desire to serve others. She, devoted the rest of her life to religious, charitable projects, including running a, home for the poor., Later, in Exercises 10.2, you will learn, that the curve in Problem 41 is called the, witch of Agnesi. Why was this given such, a peculiar name? It is actually because of a, mistranslation of Maria Agnesi’s 1748 work, Instituzione analitiche ad uso della, gioventu italiana. In her discussion of the, curve represented by the rectangular, equation y(x2 a2) a3, Agnesi used, the Italian word versiera, which is derived, from the Latin vertere, meaning “to turn.”, However, this word was confused with, avversiera, meaning “witch” or “devil’s, wife,” and the curve became known as the, witch of Agnesi., , ¨, 4π ¨, , 0, , a, , (¨ 0, 2π, 4π), x, , a, , (c), Parameter interval, , FIGURE 6, The curve is (a) a semicircle, (b) a complete circle, and (c) a complete circle traced out twice., All curves are traced in a counterclockwise direction., , EXAMPLE 4 Describe the curve represented by, x 4 cos u, Solution, , and, , y 3 sin u, , 0, , u, , 2p, , Solving the first equation for cos u and the second equation for sin u gives, cos u , , x, 4, , sin u , , y, 3, , and, , Squaring each equation and adding the resulting equations, we obtain, y 2, x 2, cos2 u sin2 u a b a b, 4, 3, Since cos2 u sin2 u 1, we end up with the rectangular equation, y2, x2, , 1, 16, 9, From this we see that the curve is contained in an ellipse centered at the origin. If, u 0, then x 4 and y 0, giving (4, 0) as the initial point of the curve. As u increases, from 0 to 2p, the elliptical curve is traced out in a counterclockwise direction, terminating at (4, 0) .

Show that the rectangular equation of the course is 4x 4 4x 2 y 2 0., b. Describe the course., Solution, a. Using the trigonometric identity sin 2t 2 sin t cos t, we rewrite the second of, the parametric equations in the form, y 2 sin t cos t 2x cos t, , Since x sin t, , Solving for cos t, we have, cos t , , y, 2x, , Then, using the identity sin2 t cos2 t 1, we obtain, x2 a, , y 2, b 1, 2x, , x2 , , y2, 4x 2, , 1, , or, 4x 4 4x 2 y 2 0, b. From the results of part (a) we see that the required curve is symmetric with, respect to the x-axis, the y-axis, and the origin. Therefore, it suffices to concentrate first on drawing the part of the curve that lies in the first quadrant and then, make use of symmetry to complete the curve. Since both sin t and sin 2t are nonnegative only for 0 t p2 , we first sketch the curve corresponding to values of t, in C0, p2 D .

If the wheel is, allowed to roll along a straight line without slipping, then the point P traces out a curve, called a cycloid (see Figure 9). Suppose that the wheel has radius a and rolls along the, x-axis. Find parametric equations for the cycloid., FIGURE 9, The cycloid is the curve, traced out by a fixed point P, on the rim of a rolling wheel., y, , P, a, , Solution Suppose that the wheel rolls in a positive direction with the point P initially, at the origin of the coordinate system. Figure 10 shows the position of the wheel after, it has rotated through u radians.

Therefore, the required parametric equations of the cycloid are, x a(u sin u), , and, , y a(1 cos u), , ⬁ u ⬁, , The cycloid provides the solution to two famous problems in mathematics:, 1. The brachistochrone problem: Find the curve along which a moving particle, (under the influence of gravity) will slide from a point A to another point B,, not directly beneath A, in the shortest time (see Figure 11a)., 2. The tautochrone problem: Find the curve having the property that it takes the, same time for a particle to slide to the bottom of the curve no matter where the, particle is placed on the curve (see Figure 11b)., The brachistochrone problem—the problem of finding the curve of quickest, descent—was advanced in 1696 by the Swiss mathematician Johann Bernoulli. Offhand, one might conjecture that such a curve should be a straight line, since it yields

But the velocity of the particle moving, on the straight line will build up comparatively slowly, whereas if we take a curve that, is steeper near A, even though the path becomes longer, the particle will cover a large, portion of the distance at a greater speed. The problem was solved by Johann Bernoulli,, his older brother Jacob Bernoulli, Leibniz, Newton, and l’Hôpital. They found that the, curve of quickest descent is an inverted arc of a cycloid (Figure 11a). As it turns out,, this same curve is also the solution to the tautochrone problem., , 10.2, , CONCEPT QUESTIONS, , 1. What is a plane curve?

Since dx>dt 2t 0 at these, values of t, we conclude that C has horizontal tangents at the points on C corresponding to t 1, that is, at (1, 2) and (1, 2). Next, setting dx>dt 0 gives, 2t 0, or t 0. Since dy>dt 0 for this value of t, we conclude that C has a, vertical tangent at the point corresponding to t 0, or at (0, 0)., b. To find the x-intercepts, we set y 0, which gives t 3 3t t(t 2 3) 0, or, t 13, 0, and 13. Substituting these values of t into the expression for x, gives 0 and 3 as the x-intercepts. Next, setting x 0 gives t 0, which, when, substituted into the expression for y, gives 0 as the y-intercept., c.

Suppose that C is represented by x f(t) and y t(t) on a parameter interval I. Then C, is smooth if f ¿ and t¿ are continuous on I and are not simultaneously zero, except possibly at the endpoints of I. A smooth curve is devoid of corners or cusps. For example, the cycloid that we discussed in Section 10.2 (see Figure 9 in that section) has, sharp corners at the values x 2npa and, therefore, is not smooth. However, it is, smooth between these points., Now let P {t 0, t 1, p , t n} be a regular partition of the parameter interval [a, b]., Then the point Pk( f(t k), t(t k)) lies on C, and the length of C is approximated by the, length of the polygonal curve with vertices P0, P1, p , Pn.

The rectangular equations of these curves are, (x 2 y 2)2 4(x 2 y 2), , and, , x 4 2x 3 2x 2y 2 2xy 2 y 2 y 4 0, , respectively. As you can see, these equations are somewhat complicated. For example,, they will not prove very helpful if we want to calculate the area enclosed by the two, loops of the lemniscate shown in Figure 1a or the length of the cardioid shown in Figure 1b.

One such system is the polar coordinate system., , The Polar Coordinate System, P (r, ¨), r, ¨, O Pole, , Polar axis, , FIGURE 2, , To construct the polar coordinate system, we fix a point O called the pole (or origin), and draw a ray (half-line) emanating from O called the polar axis. Suppose that P is, any point in the plane, let r denote the distance from O to P, and let u denote the angle, (in degrees or radians) between the polar axis and the line segment OP. (See Figure 2.), Then the point P is represented by the ordered pair (r, u), also written P(r, u), where, the numbers r and u are called the polar coordinates of P., The angular coordinate u is positive if it is measured in the counterclockwise, direction from the polar axis and negative if it is measured in the clockwise direction., The radial coordinate r may assume positive as well as negative values. If r 0, then, P(r, u) is on the terminal side of u and at a distance r from the origin. If r 0, then, P(r, u) lies on the ray that is opposite the terminal side of u and at a distance of 冟 r 冟 r, from the pole. (See Figure 3.) Also, by convention the pole O is represented by the, ordered pair (0, u) for any value of u. Finally, a plane that is endowed with a polar, coordinate system is referred to as an ru-plane., (r, ¨), , P (r, ¨), r, , r, ¨, , ¨, , O, , O, |r|, P (r, ¨), , FIGURE 3, , (a) r > 0, , (b) r < 0, , EXAMPLE 1 Plot the following points in the ru-plane., , a. 1 1, 2p, 3 2, , b. 1 2, p4 2, , c. 1 2, p3 2, , d.

For example, the point (r, u) can also be, written as (r, u 2np) or (r, u (2n 1)p), where n is any integer.

Let P be any point in the plane other than the, origin with rectangular representation (x, y) and polar representation (r, u).

Next, observe that the point (1, 1), lies in the second quadrant and so we choose u 3p>4 (other choices are, u (3p>4) 2np, where n is an integer). Therefore, one representation of the given, point is 1 12, 3p, 4 2., , Graphs of Polar Equations, The graph of a polar equation r f(u) or, more generally, F(r, u) 0 is the set of, all points (r, u) whose coordinates satisfy the equation.

The graph of r 2 consists of all points P(r, u) where r 2 and u can assume, any value. Since r gives the distance between P and the pole O, we see that the, graph consists of all points that are located a distance of 2 units from the pole;, in other words, the graph of r 2 is the circle of radius 2 centered at the pole., (See Figure 7a.) To find the corresponding rectangular equation, square both sides, of the given equation obtaining r 2 4. But by Equation (2), r 2 x 2 y 2, and, this gives the desired equation x 2 y 2 4. Since this is a rectangular equation, of a circle with center at the origin and radius 2, the result obtained earlier has, been confirmed., y, , y, P (r, ¨), 2π, ¨ 3, , r2, 2, x, , O, , FIGURE 7, , 2π, 3, O, , x, , 2π, (b) The graph of ¨ 3, , (a) The graph of r 2, , b. The graph of u 2p>3 consists of all points P(r, u) where u 2p>3 and r can, assume any value. Since u measures the angle the line segment OP makes with, the polar axis, we see that the graph consists of all points that are located on the, straight line passing through the pole O and making an angle of 2p>3 radians, with the polar axis. (See Figure 7b.) Observe that the half-line in the second, quadrant consists of points for which r 0, whereas the half-line in the fourth, quadrant consists of points for which r 0. To find the corresponding rectangular equation, we use Equation (2), tan u y>x, to obtain, tan, , y, 2p, , x, 3, , or, , y, 13, x, , or y 13x. This equation confirms that the graph of u 2p>3 is a straight, line with slope 13., As in the case with rectangular equations, we can often obtain a sketch of the graph, of a simple polar equation by plotting and connecting some points that lie on the graph., , EXAMPLE 5 Sketch the graph of the polar equation r 2 sin u. Find a corresponding rectangular equation and reconcile your results., Solution The following table shows the values of r corresponding to some convenient, values of u. It suffices to restrict the values of u to those lying between 0 and p, since, values of u beyond p will give the same points (r, u) again.

But as you will see, some curves are easier to graph using, polar coordinates., , Symmetry, Just as the use of symmetry is helpful in graphing rectangular equations, its use is, equally helpful in graphing polar equations. Three types of symmetry are illustrated in, Figure 9.

Page 25 :
872, , Chapter 10 Conic Sections, Plane Curves, and Polar Coordinates, , To illustrate the use of the tests for symmetry, consider the equation r 2 sin u of, Example 5. Here, f(u) 2 sin u, and since, f(p u) 2 sin(p u) 2(sin p cos u cos p sin u) 2 sin u f(u), we conclude that the graph of r 2 sin u is symmetric with respect to the vertical line, u p>2 (Figure 8)., , EXAMPLE 6 Sketch the graph of the polar equation r 1 cos u. This is the polar, form of the rectangular equation x 4 2x 3 2x 2y 2 2xy 2 y 2 y 4 0 of the cardioid that was mentioned at the beginning of this section (Figure 1b)., Solution, , Writing f(u) 1 cos u and observing that, f(u) 1 cos(u) 1 cos u f(u), , we conclude that the graph of r 1 cos u is symmetric with respect to the polar, axis. In view of this, we need only to obtain that part of the graph between u 0 and, u p. We can then complete the graph using symmetry., To sketch the graph of r 1 cos u for 0 u p, we can proceed as we did in, Example 5 by first plotting some points lying on that part of the graph, or we may proceed as follows: Treat r and u as rectangular coordinates, and make use of our knowledge of graphing rectangular equations to obtain the graph of r f(u) 1 cos u on, the interval [0, p]. (See Figure 10a.) Then recalling that u is the angular coordinate, and r is the radial coordinate, we see that as u increases from 0 to p, the points on, the respective rays shrink to 0.

It is called a cardioid because it is heart-shaped., , EXAMPLE 7 Sketch the graph of the polar equation r 2 cos 2u., Solution, , Write f(u) 2 cos 2u, and observe that, f(u) 2 cos 2(u) 2 cos 2u f(u), , and, f(p u) 2 cos 2(p u) 2 cos(2p 2u), 2[cos 2p cos 2u sin 2p sin 2u] 2 cos 2u f(u)

It suffices, therefore, to obtain an accurate sketch, of that part of the graph for 0 u p2 and then complete the sketch of the graph using, symmetry. Proceeding as in Example 6, we first sketch the graph of r 2 cos 2u for, 0 u p2 treating r and u as rectangular coordinates (Figure 12a), and then transcribe, the information contained in this graph onto the graph in the ru-plane for 0 u p2 ., (See Figure 12b.), ¨ π, 2, , r, 2, , a, , (π8 , √ 2 ), , b, 1, , 0.5, c, , c, π, 8, , π, 4, , d, , ¨, , π, 2, , 3π, 8, , 1, , ¨ π, 4, ¨ π, 8, , b, a, 2, , ( 3π8 , √ 2 ), , 2, , FIGURE 12, Two steps in sketching the, graph of r 2 cos 2u, , ¨ 3π, 8, , d, , e, , e 2, , (a) r f(¨) treating r and ¨ as, rectangular coordinates, , (b) r f(¨), treating r and ¨ as, polar coordinates, , Finally, using the symmetry that was established earlier (Figure 13a), we complete, the graph of r 2 cos 2u as shown in Figure 13b.

This is an equation of the lemniscate that was mentioned at, the beginning of this section., Solution To convert the given equation to polar form, we use Equations (1) and (2),, obtaining, (r 2)2 4(r 2 cos2 u r 2 sin2 u), 4r 2(cos2 u sin2 u), r 4 4r 2 cos 2u

Also,, observe that f(u) f(u) and f(p u) f(u). (These computations are similar to, those in Example 7.) So the graph of r 21cos 2u is symmetric with respect to the, polar axis and the line u p>2. The graph of r f(u) for 0 u p4 , where r and u, are treated as rectangular coordinates, is shown in Figure 14a. This leads to the part of, the required graph for 0 u p4 shown in Figure 14b. Then, using symmetry, we, obtain the graph of r 21cos 2u and, therefore, that of (x 2 y 2)2 4(x 2 y 2), as, shown in Figure 15., r, ¨ π, 4, , 2, , π, 4, , (a), , 2, , ¨, , 2, , 2, , FIGURE 15, The graph of r 21cos 2u is a, lemniscate., , (b), , FIGURE 14, Two steps in sketching the graph of r 21cos 2u, , Tangent Lines to Graphs of Polar Equations, To find the slope of the tangent line to the graph of r f(u) at the point P(r, u), let, P(x, y) be the rectangular representation of P. Then, x r cos u f(u) cos u, y r sin u f(u) sin u, We can view these equations as parametric equations for the graph of r f(u) with, parameter u.

The vertical tangent lines are located at the points where, dx>du 0 and dy>du 0 (so that dy>dx is undefined). Also, points where both dy>du, and dx>du are equal to zero are candidates for horizontal or vertical tangent lines,, respectively, and may be investigated using l’Hôpital’s Rule., Equation (3) can be used to help us find the tangent lines to the graph of r f(u), at the pole. To see this, suppose that the graph of f passes through the pole when, u u0. Then f(u0) 0.

884, , Chapter 10 Conic Sections, Plane Curves, and Polar Coordinates, , Points of Intersection of Graphs in Polar Coordinates, In Example 4 we were able to find the points of intersection of two curves with representations in polar coordinates by solving a system of two equations simultaneously., This is not always the case. Consider for example, the graphs of the cardioid, r 1 cos u and the circle r 3 cos u shown in Figure 10. Solving the two equations simultaneously, we obtain, , (, ), 3_ π, _, 2 3, , 1, , 1, , 2, , 3, , 3 cos u 1 cos u, , 1, , cos u , , ( ), 3_ 5π, __, 2, 3, , (3), , 1, 2, , or u p>3 and 5p>3. Therefore, the points of intersection are 1 32, p3 2 and 1 32, 5p, 3 2 . But, one glance at Figure 10 shows the pole as a third point of intersection that is not revealed, in our calculation. To see how this can happen, think of the cardioid as being traced, by the point (r, u) satisfying, , FIGURE 10, The graphs of the cardioid, r 1 cos u and the circle, r 3 cos u, , r f(u) 1 cos u, , 0, , u, , 2p, , with u as a parameter. If we think of u as representing time, then as u runs from u 0, through u 2p, the point (r, u) starts at (2, 0) and traverses the cardioid in a counterclockwise direction, eventually returning to the point (2, 0). (See Figure 11a.) Similarly, the circle is traced twice in the counterclockwise direction, by the point (r, u),, where, r t(u) 3 cos u, , 0, , u, , 2p, , and the parameter u, once again representing time, runs from u 0 through u 2p, (see Figure 11b)., , ( 32 , π3 ), (0, π), , (2, 0), , (0, π2 ), , ( 32 , π3 ), (3, 0), , ( 32 , 23π ), ( 32 , 53π ), FIGURE 11, , (a), , (b), , Observe that the point tracing the cardioid arrives at the point 1 32, p3 2 on the cardioid, at precisely the same time that the point tracing the circle arrives at the point 1 32, p3 2 on, the circle. A similar observation holds at the point 1 32, 5p, 3 2 on each of the two curves., These are the points of intersection found earlier., Next, observe that the point tracing the cardioid arrives at the origin when u p., But the point tracing the circle first arrives at the origin when u p>2 and then again, when u 3p>2. In other words, these two points arrive at the origin at different times,, so there is no (common) value of u corresponding to the origin that satisfies both Equations (3) simultaneously. Thus, although the origin is a point of intersection of the two, curves, this fact will not show up in the solution of the system of equations. For this, reason it is recommended that we sketch the graphs of polar equations when finding, their points of intersection.

How, fast is the distance between the airplane and the radar station changing at any time?, How close to the radar station does the airplane get? To answer questions such as these,, we need to be able to describe the path of the airplane. More specifically, we want to, be able to represent a line in space algebraically., In this section we will see how lines as well as planes in space can be described, in algebraic terms. We begin by considering a line in space. Such a line is uniquely, determined by specifying its direction and a point through which it passes. The direction may be specified by a vector that has the same direction as the line. So suppose, that the line L passes through the point P0(x 0, y0, z 0) and has the same direction as the, vector v 具a, b, c典. (See Figure 2.), !, Let P(x, y, z) be any point on L. Then the vector P0P is parallel to v. But two vectors are parallel if and only if one is a scalar multiple of the other. Therefore, there, exists some number t, called a parameter, such that, !, P0P tv, !, or, since P0P 具x x 0, y y0, z z 0典, we have, , 0, y, x, , FIGURE 1, The path of the airplane is a straight, line., z, L, P0(x0, y0, z0), , P(x, y, z), , v, , 具x x 0, y y0, z z 0典 t具a, b, c典 具ta, tb, tc典, , 0, y, x, , FIGURE 2, The line L passes through P0 and is, parallel to the vector v., , Equating the corresponding components of the two vectors then yields, x x 0 ta,, , y y0 tb,, , and, , z z 0 tc, , Solving these equations for x, y, and z, respectively, gives the following standard parametric equations of the line L., , DEFINITION Parametric Equations of a Line, The parametric equations of the line passing through the point P0(x 0, y0, z 0) and, parallel to the vector v 具a, b, c典 are, x x 0 at,, , y y0 bt,, , and, , z z 0 ct, , (1)

946, , Chapter 11 Vectors and the Geometry of Space, , Each value of the parameter t corresponds to a point P(x, y, z) on L. As t takes on, all values in the parameter interval (⬁, ⬁), the line L is traced out. (See Figure 3.), z, L, P(x, y, z), , FIGURE 3, As t runs through all values, in the parameter interval, (⬁, ⬁), L is traced out., z, P0 (2, 1, 3) (t 0), 3, , (t 2), , L, , y, x, , EXAMPLE 1 Find parametric equations for the line passing through the point, P0 (2, 1, 3) and parallel to the vector v 具1, 2, 2典., , x 2 t,, , 5, x, , 0, , Solution We use Equation (1) with x 0 2, y0 1, z 0 3, a 1, b 2, and, c 2, obtaining, , (t 1), , 3, , t, t, Parameter interval, , y, , v 1, 2, 2, , FIGURE 4, The line L and some points on L corresponding to selected values of t. Note, the orientation of the line., , y 1 2t,, , z 3 2t, , and, , The line L in question is sketched in Figure 4., Suppose that the vector v 具a, b, c典 defines the direction of a line L. Then the, numbers a, b, and c are called the direction numbers of L. Observe that if a line L is, described by a set of parametric equations (1), then the direction numbers of L are precisely the coefficients of t in each of the parametric equations., There is another way of describing a line in space. We start with the parametric, equations of the line L,, x x 0 at,, , y y0 bt,, , z z 0 ct, , and, , If the direction numbers a, b, and c are all nonzero, then we can solve each of these, equations for t. Thus,, t, , x x0, ,, a, , t, , y y0, ,, b, , t, , and, , z z0, c, , which gives the following symmetric equations of L., , DEFINITION Symmetric Equations of a Line, The symmetric equations of the line L passing through the point P0 (x 0, y0, z 0), and parallel to the vector v 具a, b, c典 are, y y0, x x0, z z0, , , a, c, b, , (2), , Note Suppose a 0 and both b and c are not equal to zero, then the parametric equations of the line take the form, x x 0,, , y y0 bt,, , and, , z z 0 ct

Solving the second and, third equations for t leads to, y y0, z z0, x x 0,, , c, b, which are the symmetric equations of the line. We leave it to you to consider and interpret the other cases., , EXAMPLE 2, a. Find parametric equations and symmetric equations for the line L passing through, the points P(3, 3, 2) and Q(2, 1, 4)., b. At what point does L intersect the xy-plane?, Solution, !, a. The direction of L is the same as that of the vector PQ 具5, 4, 6典. Since L, passes through P(3, 3, 2), we can use Equation (1) with a 5, b 4,, c 6, x 0 3, y0 3, and z 0 2, to obtain the parametric equations, x 3 5t,, , y 3 4t,, , z 2 6t, , and, , Next, using Equation (2), we obtain the following symmetric equations for L:, y3, x3, z2, , , 5, 4, 6, b. At the point where the line intersects the xy-plane, we have z 0. So setting, z 0 in the third parametric equation, we obtain t 13. Substituting this value, of t into the other parametric equations gives the required point as 1 43, 53, 0 2 ., (See Figure 5.), z, 5, Q(2, 1, 4), , ( , , 0), 4, 3, , FIGURE 5, The line L intersects the, xy-plane at the point 1 43, 53, 0 2 ., , 5, 3, , P(3, 3, 2), , 0, 4, , 3, , L, , y, , x, , Suppose that L 1 and L 2 are lines having the same directions as the vectors v1 and, v2, respectively. Then L 1 is parallel to L 2 if v1 is parallel to v2., , EXAMPLE 3 Let L 1 be the line with parametric equations, x 1 2t,, , y 2 3t,, , and, , z2t, , and let L 2 be the line with parametric equations, x 3 4t,, , y 1 4t,, , and, , z 3 4t, , a. Show that the lines L 1 and L 2 are not parallel to each other., b. Do the lines L 1 and L 2 intersect? If so, find their point of intersection.
Page 44 :
948, , Chapter 11 Vectors and the Geometry of Space, , Solution, a. By inspection the direction numbers of L 1 are 2,3, and 1. Therefore, L 1 has the, same direction as the vector v1 具2, 3, 1典. Similarly, we see that L 2 has direction given by the vector v2 具4, 4, 4典 4具1, 1, 1典. Since v1 is not a, scalar multiple of v2, the vectors are not parallel, so L 1 and L 2 are not parallel as, well., b. Suppose that L 1 and L 2 intersect at the point P0(x 0, y0, z 0). Then there must exist, parameter values t 1 and t 2 such that, x 0 1 2t 1,, , y0 2 3t 1,, , and, , z, , z 0 2 t1, t 1 corresponds to P0 on L 1., , 5, , and, x 0 3 4t 2,, (1, 5, 1), , L1, , 0, 5, 4, , L1, , L2, , FIGURE 7, The lines L 1 and L 2 are skew lines., , and, , z 0 3 4t 2, t 2 corresponds to P0 on L 2., , This leads to the system of three linear equations, , y, , x, , FIGURE 6, The lines L 1 and L 2 intersect at the, point (1, 5, 1)., , y0 1 4t 2,, , L2, , 1 2t 1 , , 3 4t 2, , 2 3t 1 , , 1 4t 2, , 2 t 1 3 4t 2, that must be satisfied by t 1 and t 2. Adding the first two equations gives, 3 t 1 4, or t 1 1. Substituting this value of t 1 into either the first or, the second equation then gives t 2 1. Finally, substituting these values of t 1, and t 2 into the third equation gives 2 1 3 4(1) 1, which shows that, the third equation is also satisfied by these values. We conclude that L 1 and L 2, do indeed intersect at a point., To find the point of intersection, substitute t 1 1 into the parametric equations defining L 1, or, equivalently substitute t 2 1 into the parametric equations, defining L 2. In both cases we find that x 0 1, y0 5, and z 0 1, so the point, of intersection is (1, 5, 1). (See Figure 6.), Two lines in space are said to be skew if they do not intersect and are not parallel. (See Figure 7.), , EXAMPLE 4 Flight Path of Two Airplanes As two planes fly by each other, their flight, paths are given by the straight lines, L 1:, , x1t, , y 2 3t, , z4t, , x 2 2t, , y 4 3t, , z 1 4t, , and, L 2:, , Show that the lines are skew and, therefore, that there is no danger of the planes colliding., Solution The directions of L 1 and L 2 are given by the directions of the vectors, v1 具1, 3, 1典 and v2 具2, 3, 4典, respectively. Since one vector is not a scalar, multiple of the other, the lines L 1 and L 2 are not parallel. Next, suppose that the two, lines do intersect at some point P0 (x 0, y0, z 0) . Then, x 0 1 t1, , y0 2 3t 1, , z 0 4 t1

11.5, , Lines and Planes in Space, , 949, , and, x 0 2 2t 2, , y0 4 3t 2, , z 0 1 4t 2, , for some t 1 and t 2. Equating the values of x 0, y0, and z 0 then gives, 1 t1 , , 2 2t 2, , 2 3t 1 4 3t 2, 4 t1 , , 1 4t 2, , Solving the first two equations for t 1 and t 2 yields t 1 19 and t 2 59. Substituting these, values of t 1 and t 2 into the third equation gives 379 299, a contradiction. This shows, that there are no values of t 1 and t 2 that satisfy the three equations simultaneously., Thus, L 1 and L 2 do not intersect. We have shown that L 1 and L 2 are skew lines, so there, is no possibility of the planes colliding., , Equations of Planes in Space, A plane in space is uniquely determined by specifying a point P0 (x 0, y0, z 0) lying in, the plane and a vector n 具a, b, c典 that is normal (perpendicular) to it. (See Figure 8.), To find! an equation of the plane, let P(x, y, z) be any point in the plane. Then the vector P0P must be orthogonal to n. But two vectors are orthogonal if and only if their, dot product is equal to zero. Therefore, we must have, !, (3), n ⴢ P0P 0, !, Since P0P 具x x 0, y y0, z z 0典, we can also write Equation (3) as, 具a, b, c典 ⴢ 具x x 0, y y0, z z 0典 0, or, a(x x 0) b(y y0) c(z z 0) 0, , n, n, , !

Find the x-, y-, and z-intercepts, and make a sketch, of the plane.

950, , Chapter 11 Vectors and the Geometry of Space, , Solution We use Equation (4) with a 4, b 2, c 3, x 0 3, y0 3, and, z 0 2, obtaining, , z, (0, 0, 4), , 4(x 3) 2(y 3) 3(z 2) 0, or, 4x 2y 3z 12, (0, 6, 0), , (3, 0, 0), , y, , x, , FIGURE 9, The portion of the plane, 4x 2y 3z 12 in the, first octant, , To find the x-intercept, we note that any point on the x-axis must have both its yand z-coordinates equal to zero. Setting y z 0 in the equation of the plane, we, find that x 3. Therefore, 3 is the x-intercept. Similarly, we find that the y- and, z-intercepts are 6 and 4, respectively. By connecting the points (3, 0, 0) , (0, 6, 0) , and, (0, 0, 4) with straight line segments, we obtain a sketch of that portion of the plane, lying in the first octant. (See Figure 9.), , EXAMPLE 6 Find an equation of the plane containing the points P(3, 1, 1),, Q(1, 4, 2), and R(0, 1, 4)., Solution To use Equation (4), we need, to find a vector normal, to the plane in question., !, !, Observe that both! of the! vectors PQ 具2, 5, 1典 and PR 具3, 2, 3典 lie in the plane,, so the vector PQ PR is normal to the plane. Denoting this vector by n, we have, i, !, !, n PQ PR † 2, 3, , j k, 5 1 † 13i 3j 11k, 2 3, , Finally, using the point P(3, 1, 1) in the plane (any of the other two points will, also do) and the normal vector n just found, with a 13, b 3, c 11, x 0 3,, y0 1, and z 0 1, Equation (4) gives, 13(x 3) 3(y 1) 11(z 1) 0, or, upon simplification,, 13x 3y 11z 47, The plane is sketched in Figure 10., z, 4, , R(0, 1, 4), , n, PR, Q(1, 4, 2), PQ, , P(3, –1, 1), , FIGURE 10, The normal to the, ! plane!, is n PQ PR ., , 4, y, 4, , x, , By expanding Equation (4) and regrouping the terms, as we did in Examples 5 and, 6, we obtain the general form of the equation of a plane in space,, ax by cz d, , (5)

11.5, , Lines and Planes in Space, , 951, , where d ax 0 by0 cz 0. Conversely, given ax by cz d with a, b, and c, not all equal to zero, we can choose numbers x 0, y0, and z 0 such that, ax 0 by0 cz 0 d. For example, if c 0, we can pick x 0 and y0 arbitrarily and, solve the equation ax 0 by0 cz 0 d for z 0, obtaining z 0 (d ax 0 by0)>c., Therefore, with these choices of x 0, y0, and z 0, Equation (5) takes the form, ax by cz ax 0 by0 cz 0, or, a(x x 0) b(y y0) c(z z 0) 0, which we recognize to be an equation of the plane containing the point (x 0, y0, z 0) and, having a normal vector n 具a, b, c典. (See Equation (4).) An equation of the form, ax by cz d, with a, b, and c not all zero, is called a linear equation in the, three variables x, y, and z., , THEOREM 1, Every plane in space can be represented by a linear equation ax by cz d,, where a, b, and c are not all equal to zero. Conversely, every linear equation, ax by cz d represents a plane in space having a normal vector 具a, b, c典., , Note Notice that the coefficients of x, y, and z are precisely the components of the, normal vector n 具a, b, c典. Thus, we can write a normal vector to a plane by simply, inspecting its equation., , Parallel and Orthogonal Planes, Two planes with normal vectors m and n are parallel to each other if m and n are parallel; the planes are orthogonal if m and n are orthogonal.

Since, the required plane is parallel to the given plane, it also has n as a normal vector. Therefore, using Equation (4), we obtain, 2(x 2) 3(y 1) 4(z 3) 0

Let P0(x 0, y0, z 0) be any point lying, in the plane. Then, as you can see in Figure 14, the distance, ! D between P1 and the, plane is given by the length of the vector projection of P0P1 onto the normal vector, n 具a, b, c典 of, ! the plane. Equivalently, D is the absolute value of the scalar component of P0P1 along n.

In general, the graph of an equation in three variables, F(x, y, z) 0, is a surface in 3-space. In this section we will study surfaces called cylinders and quadric surfaces., The paraboloidal surface shown in Figure 1a is an example of a quadric surface. A, uniformly rotating liquid acquires this shape as a result of the interaction between the, force of gravity and centrifugal force. As was explained in Section 10.1, this surface, is ideal for radio and optical telescope mirrors. (See Figure 1b.) Mathematically, a, paraboloid is obtained by revolving a parabola about its axis of symmetry. (See Figure 1c.)

The trace of a surface S in a plane is the intersection of, the surface and the plane. In particular, the traces of S in the xy-plane, the yz-plane,, and the xz-plane are called the xy-trace, the yz-trace and the xz-trace, respectively., To find the xy-traces, we set z 0 and sketch the graph of the resulting equation, in the xy-plane. The other traces are obtained in a similar manner. Of course, if the surface does not intersect the plane, there is no trace in that plane., , EXAMPLE 1 Consider the plane with equation 4x 2y 3z 12. (See Example 5, in Section 11.5.) Find the traces of the plane in the coordinate planes, and sketch the, plane., Solution To find the xy-trace, we first set z 0 in the given equation to obtain, the equation 4x 2y 12. Then we sketch the graph of this equation in the, xy-plane. (See Figure 2a.) To find the yz-trace, we set x 0 to obtain the equation, 2y 3z 12, whose graph in the yz-plane gives the required trace. (See Figure 2b.), The xz-trace is obtained in a similar manner. (See Figure 2c.)

Setting z 0 gives x 2 y 2 0, from which we see that the xy-trace is the, origin (0, 0). (See Figure 3a.) Next, setting x 0 gives z y 2, from which we, see that the yz-trace is a parabola. (See Figure 3b.) Finally, setting y 0 gives, z x 2, so the xz-trace is also a parabola. (See Figure 3c.), b. Setting z k, we obtain x 2 y 2 k, from which we see that the trace, of S in the plane z k is a circle of radius 1k centered at the point of, intersection of the plane and the z-axis, provided that k 0. (See Figure 3d.), Observe that if k 0, the trace is the point (0, 0) (degenerate circle) obtained, in part (a)., c. The graph of z x 2 y 2 sketched in Figure 3e is called a circular paraboloid, because its traces in planes parallel to the coordinate planes are either circles or, parabolas., , HERMANN MINKOWSKI, (1864–1909), Hermann Minkowski spent much of his, childhood in Königsberg, Germany, and, eventually attended the University of, Königsberg. While he was at the university,, his exceptional mathematical talent surfaced. In 1881 he submitted a proof for a, problem that had been posed by the Paris, Académie Royale des Sciences. Although, his 140-page proof was not the only one, submitted, it was deemed better formulated than that of British mathematician, H. J. Smith. The prize was awarded to, Minkowski when he was just 19 years old., Minkowski received his doctorate from, the University of Königsberg in 1885 and, began a career in teaching. He taught at, the University of Zurich, the University of, Bonn, and the University of Königsberg., Some of his mathematical achievements were the geometry of numbers, his, geometrical concept of volume, his investigation of ternary quadratic forms, and a, generalization of this technique to ellipsoids and other convex shapes such as, cylinders. Minkowski had an exceptional, grasp of geometrical concepts, and in, 1905, when participating in a seminar on, electron theory, he linked the theory with, that of subatomic particles proposed by, Einstein and Hendrik Lorentz. Minkowski, identified the need to visualize space as a, four-dimensional, non-Euclidian space-time, continuum. This 4-space concept became, the basis of the theory that Einstein used, in his general theory of relativity., Minkowski died of a ruptured appendix, when he was just 44 years old., , z, , z, , z, , 0, y, x, , y, x, , (a) xy-trace is a point., , y, x, , (b) yz-trace is a parabola., z, , (c) xz-trace is a parabola., z, xz-trace, , yz-trace, , zk, , y, x, (d) If z k, the trace is a circle., V, , FIGURE 3, The traces of the surface S, , xy-trace, , y, , x, (e) The surface z x2 y2

11.6, , Surfaces in Space, , 959, , Cylinders, We now turn our attention to a class of surfaces called cylinders., , DEFINITION Cylinder, Let C be a curve in a plane, and let l be a line that is not parallel to that plane., Then the set of all points generated by letting a line traverse C while parallel to, l at all times is called a cylinder. The curve C is called the directrix of the cylinder, and each line through C parallel to l is called a ruling of the cylinder. (See, Figure 4.), , l, , l, Rulings, C (directrix), , FIGURE 4, Two cylinders. The curve C is the, directrix. The rulings are parallel to l., , C, , Cylinders in which the directrix lies in a coordinate plane and the rulings are perpendicular to that plane have relatively simple algebraic representations. Consider, for, example, the surface S with equation f(x, y) 0. The xy-trace of S is the graph C of, the equation f(x, y) 0 in the xy-plane. (See Figure 5a.) Next, observe that if (x, y, 0), is any point on C, then the point (x, y, z) must satisfy the equation f(x, y) 0 for any, value of z (since z is not present in the equation). But all such points lie on the line, perpendicular to the xy-plane and pass through the point (x, y, 0). This shows that the, surface S is a cylinder with directrix f(x, y) 0 and rulings that are parallel to the, direction of the axis of the missing variable z. (See Figure 5b.), z, , z, (x, y, z), S, , FIGURE 5, The surface f(x, y) 0 is a, cylinder with directrix C defined, by f(x, y) 0 in the xy-plane, and with rulings parallel to, the direction of the axis, of the missing variable z., , 0, y, x, , C, , (x, y, 0), , (a) C is the xy-trace., , y, x, , C, , (b) C is the directrix of the cylinder S., The rulings are parallel to the z-axis., , EXAMPLE 3 Sketch the graph of y x 2 4., Solution The given equation has the form f(x, y) 0, where f(x, y) x 2 y 4., Therefore, its graph is a cylinder with directrix given by the graph of y x 2 4 in, the xy-plane and rulings parallel to the z-axis (corresponding to the variable missing in, the equation).

For example, the equation x 2 y 2 1 represents a circle in the plane, but the same equation represents a right circular cylinder in 3-space., , Quadric Surfaces, Z, X, , The equation of a sphere given in Section 11.2 and the equations in Examples 1, 2,, and 3 in this section are special cases of the second-degree equation in x, y, and z, Ax 2 By 2 Cz 2 Dxy Exz Fyz Gx Hy Iz J 0, , Y, y, , x, , FIGURE 9, By translating and rotating the xyzsystem, we have the XYZ-system in, which the paraboloid is in standard, position with respect to the latter., , where A, B, C, p , J are constants. The graph of this equation is a quadric surface., By making a suitable translation and/or rotation of the coordinate system, a quadric, surface can always be put in standard position with respect to a new coordinate system. (See Figure 9.) With respect to the new system the equation will assume one of, the two standard forms, AX 2 BY 2 CZ 2 J 0, , or, , AX 2 BY 2 IZ 0, , For this reason we will restrict our study of quadric surfaces to those represented by, the equations, AX 2 BY 2 CZ 2 J 0, , or, , AX 2 BY 2 IZ 0, , When we sketch the following quadric surfaces, we will find it useful to look at their, traces in the coordinate planes as well as planes that are parallel to the coordinate planes., In the remainder of this section, unless otherwise noted, a, b, and c denote positive real numbers., , Ellipsoids, , The graph of the equation, x2, a2, , , , y2, b2, , , , z2, c2, , 1

Note that the orientation of the, axis of the hyperboloid is associated with the term that has a minus sign in front of it., Thus, if the minus sign had been in front of the term involving x, then the surface would, have been a hyperboloid of one sheet with the x-axis as its axis., , Hyperboloids of Two Sheets, , , The graph of the equation, x2, a2, , , , y2, b2, , , , z2, c2, , 1, , is a hyperboloid of two sheets.

There are no values of x and y that satisfy the equation if, k c, so the surface is made up of two parts, as shown in Figure 12c: one part lying, on or above the plane z c and the other part lying on or below the plane z c., The axis of the hyperboloid is the z-axis. Observe that the sign associated with the, variable z is positive. Had the positive sign been in front of one of the other variables,, then the surface would have been a hyperboloid of two sheets with its axis along the, axis associated with that variable.
