Vectors and the Geometry of Space: Cylinders and Quadric Surfaces
In this video I explore the wonderful world of cylinders and quadric surfaces. Cylinders are defined as a 3D surface that consists of all lines (called rulings) that are parallel to a given line and pass through a given plane curve. Quadric surfaces are the graphs of a second-degree equation in three variables x, y, and z. Unlike quadric surfaces, cylinders have 1 of the x, y, or z variables missing from its equation. This makes the cylinder extend outwards along the missing variable. I also go over some exercises and show that the Earth can be more accurately modeled as an ellipsoid, which is a type of quadric surface. This section is part of the Vectors and Geometry of Space chapter in my Calculus book.
