Intersection of multivariate graphs

Answered

Hi, I have two multivariate functions graphed: f(x,y)=x^2 + y^2 and g(x,y) = xy+2. I would like to show the curve of intersection of these two graphs. Is this possible? Couldn't get it to work with regular "intersect" command.

The projection of the intersection onto the xOyPlane is:

x² + y² - x y - 2 = 0
Curve(2 / sqrt(2) (sin(t) - cos(t) / sqrt(3)), 2 / sqrt(2) (sin(t) + cos(t) / sqrt(3)), t, 0, 2π)

so the intersection is

Curve(2 / sqrt(2) (sin(t) - cos(t) / sqrt(3)), 2 / sqrt(2) (sin(t) + cos(t) / sqrt(3)),f(2 / sqrt(2) (sin(t) - cos(t) / sqrt(3)), 2 / sqrt(2) (sin(t) + cos(t) / sqrt(3))), t, 0, 2π)

Hi Michael,

I'd like to show the curve of the intersection of x^2+4y^2+9z^2=1 and z = h x + c.

Please see the link below.

I also want to an animation point on this intersection curve.

Is it possible?

Thank you so much for your help.

That's easier, there's a command for that :)

IntersectPath( <Plane>, <Quadric> )

Try:

c:IntersectPath(a, b)
A=Point(c)
StartAnimation(A)

Thank you, Michael!

Actually I have a surface.Is there a command for Intersection of a surface and a plane?

I try yours but it didn't work.

Thank you for your reply.

Hi Sanelma!

One possibility is to solve the equation f(x,y)=g(x,y) and to use the solution for drawing one rather two curves.

That's very nice!

I think you need an extra +2 on the z-coordinate

Oh - thank you for your kind words and yes, I forgot the +2 on the z-coordinate, so all must be above the x-y-plane.

Good looks!

Kind regards
