From this definition, we can see that we still have a cylinder in three-dimensional space, even if the curve is not a circle. Any curve can form a cylinder, and the rulings that compose the cylinder may be parallel to any given line (Figure \(\PageIndex{2}\)).

A set of lines parallel to a given line passing through a given curve is known as a cylindrical surface, or cylinder. The parallel lines are called rulings.

The traces parallel to the \(xy\)-plane are ellipses and the traces parallel to the \(xz\)- and \(yz\)-planes are hyperbolas. Specifically, the trace in the \(xy\)-plane is ellipse \( \dfrac{x^2}{3^2}+\dfrac{y^2}{2^2}=1,\) the trace in the \(xz\)-plane is hyperbola \( \dfrac{x^2}{3^2}−\dfrac{z^2}{5^2}=1,\) and the trace in the \(yz\)-plane is hyperbola \( \dfrac{y^2}{2^2}−\dfrac{z^2}{5^2}=1\) (see the following figure).

then we call that surface an elliptic paraboloid. The trace in the xy-plane is an ellipse, but the traces in the \(xz\)-plane and \(yz\)-plane are parabolas (Figure \(\PageIndex{9}\)). Other elliptic paraboloids can have other orientations simply by interchanging the variables to give us a different variable in the linear term of the equation \( \dfrac{x^2}{a^2}+\dfrac{z^2}{c^2}=\dfrac{y}{b}\) or \( \dfrac{y^2}{b^2}+\dfrac{z^2}{c^2}=\dfrac{x}{a}\).

b. In this case, the equation contains all three variables —\( x,y,\) and \( z\)— so none of the variables can vary arbitrarily. The easiest way to visualize this surface is to use a computer graphing utility (Figure \(\PageIndex{4}\)).

Our microscope objectives are broadband AR coated and designed for diffraction limited performance across the entire visible spectrum. This allows collimated beams from lasers such as HeNe, Argon, or frequency double Nd:YAG to be focused to a small spot for spatial filtering. In spatial filtering, a laser source is focused to a diffraction limited airy disk spot pattern. A pinhole is placed at the focal plane sized such that only the central lobe of the airy disk may pass through. This removes undesired higher spatial frequencies to produce a clean uniform output beam. Please see our Three-Axis Spatial Filters and our space-saving Compact Five-Axis Spatial Filters.

The trace of an ellipsoid is an ellipse in each of the coordinate planes. However, this does not have to be the case for all quadric surfaces. Many quadric surfaces have traces that are different kinds of conic sections, and this is usually indicated by the name of the surface. For example, if a surface can be described by an equation of the form

Cylindrical surfaces are formed by a set of parallel lines. Not all surfaces in three dimensions are constructed so simply, however. We now explore more complex surfaces, and traces are an important tool in this investigation.

b. We first notice that the \( z\) term is raised only to the first power, so this is either an elliptic paraboloid or a hyperbolic paraboloid. We also note there are \( x\) terms and \( y\) terms that are not squared, so this quadric surface is not centered at the origin. We need to complete the square to put this equation in one of the standard forms. We have

c. In this equation, the variable \( z\) can take on any value without limit. Therefore, the lines composing this surface are parallel to the \(z\)-axis. The intersection of this surface with the \(xy\)-plane outlines curve \( y=\sin x\) (Figure \(\PageIndex{5}\)).

Start by sketching the traces. To find the trace in the \(xy\)-plane, set \( z=0: \dfrac{x^2}{2^2}+\dfrac{y^2}{3^2}=1\) (Figure \(\PageIndex{7}\)). To find the other traces, first set \( y=0\) and then set \( x=0.\)

In the two-dimensional coordinate plane, the equation \( x^2+y^2=9\) describes a circle centered at the origin with radius \( 3\). In three-dimensional space, this same equation represents a surface. Imagine copies of a circle stacked on top of each other centered on the \(z\)-axis (Figure \(\PageIndex{1}\)), forming a hollow tube. We can then construct a cylinder from the set of lines parallel to the \(z\)-axis passing through the circle \( x^2+y^2=9\) in the \(xy\)-plane, as shown in the figure. In this way, any curve in one of the coordinate planes can be extended to become a surface.

The trace in plane \( z=5\) is the graph of equation \( x^2+\dfrac{y^2}{2^2}=1\), which is an ellipse. In the \(xz\)-plane, the equation becomes \( z=5x^2\). The trace is a parabola in this plane and in any plane with the equation \( y=b\).

a. The \( x,y,\) and \( z\) terms are all squared, and are all positive, so this is probably an ellipsoid. However, let’s put the equation into the standard form for an ellipsoid just to be sure. We have

Traces are useful in sketching cylindrical surfaces. For a cylinder in three dimensions, though, only one set of traces is useful. Notice, in Figure \(\PageIndex{6}\), that the trace of the graph of \( z=\sin x\) in the \(xz\)-plane is useful in constructing the graph. The trace in the \(xy\)-plane, though, is just a series of parallel lines, and the trace in the \(yz\)-plane is simply one line.

Since \(z\) is the first-power variable, the axis of the reflector corresponds to the \(z\)-axis. The coefficients of \( x^2\) and \( y^2\) are equal, so the cross-section of the paraboloid perpendicular to the \(z\)-axis is a circle. We can consider a trace in the \(xz\)-plane or the \(yz\)-plane; the result is the same. Setting \( y=0\), the trace is a parabola opening up along the \(z\)-axis, with standard equation \( x^2=4pz\), where \( p\) is the focal length of the parabola. In this case, this equation becomes \( x^2=100⋅\dfrac{z}{4}=4pz\) or \( 25=4p\). So \(p\) is \( 6.25\) m, which tells us that the focus of the paraboloid is \( 6.25\) m up the axis from the vertex. Because the vertex of this surface is the origin, the focal point is \( (0,0,6.25).\)

The first surface we’ll examine is the cylinder. Although most people immediately think of a hollow pipe or a soda straw when they hear the word cylinder, here we use the broad mathematical meaning of the term. As we have seen, cylindrical surfaces don’t have to be circular. A rectangular heating duct is a cylinder, as is a rolled-up yoga mat, the cross-section of which is a spiral shape.

Hyperboloids of one sheet have some fascinating properties. For example, they can be constructed using straight lines, such as in the sculpture in Figure \(\PageIndex{11a}\). In fact, cooling towers for nuclear power plants are often constructed in the shape of a hyperboloid. The builders are able to use straight steel beams in the construction, which makes the towers very strong while using relatively little material (Figure \(\PageIndex{11b}\)).

a. The variable \( y\) can take on any value without limit. Therefore, the lines ruling this surface are parallel to the \(y\)-axis. The intersection of this surface with the \(xz\)-plane forms a circle centered at the origin with radius \( 5\) (see Figure \(\PageIndex{3}\)).

To find the trace in the \(xy\)-plane, set \( z=0: x^2+\dfrac{y^2}{2^2}=0.\) The trace in the plane \( z=0\) is simply one point, the origin. Since a single point does not tell us what the shape is, we can move up the \(z\)-axis to an arbitrary plane to find the shape of other traces of the figure.

An ellipsoid is a surface described by an equation of the form \( \dfrac{x^2}{a^2}+\dfrac{y^2}{b^2}+\dfrac{z^2}{c^2}=1.\) Set \( x=0\) to see the trace of the ellipsoid in the \(yz\)-plane. To see the traces in the \(xy\)- and \(xz\)-planes, set \( z=0\) and \( y=0\), respectively. Notice that, if \( a=b\), the trace in the \(xy\)-plane is a circle. Similarly, if \( a=c\), the trace in the \(xz\)-plane is a circle and, if \( b=c\), then the trace in the \(yz\)-plane is a circle. A sphere, then, is an ellipsoid with \( a=b=c.\)

We have learned about surfaces in three dimensions described by first-order equations; these are planes. Some other common types of surfaces can be described by second-order equations. We can view these surfaces as three-dimensional extensions of the conic sections we discussed earlier: the ellipse, the parabola, and the hyperbola. We call these graphs quadric surfaces

Now that we know what traces of this solid look like, we can sketch the surface in three dimensions (Figure \(\PageIndex{8}\)).
