Example 6: Curve of Intersection of a Cylinder and Plane

Listen Later

https://3speak.tv/watch?v=mes/fzdoeatu
In this video I go over an example on determining the vector function of the curve of intersection between a vertical cylinder and a slanted plane. I first find an equation of the intersection by plugging the equation of the plane into the equation of the cylinder. I then determine 4 points of intersection and manually graph it out, obtaining an ellipse. Projecting this ellipse onto the x-y plane obtains a unit circle of radius 1. By using the Pythagorean Identity, I obtain parametric equations of the circle as trigonometric functions for x and y. By plugging the y parametric equation into the plane equation, we obtain the z parametric equation. From here we can combine the parametric equations into a vector function. Note that earlier in the video, I also graphed the plane and cylinder in GeoGebra 3D graphing calculator: https://www.geogebra.org/calculator/v7ecchdb
