Example 7: Using Computers (GeoGebra) to Draw Space Curves

Listen Later

https://3speak.tv/watch?v=mes/ewfhgotg
In this video I graph out several complicated space curves using GeoGebra's amazing 3D graphing calculator. These curves are the toroidal spiral, trefoil knot, and a twisted cubic. I illustrate the importance of perspective when viewing these three dimensional curves, by graphing the projections along each major coordinate plane. I also show that we can better visualize space curves by graphing them on 3D surfaces. For example, the twisted cubic is just the intersection curve between a parabolic and cubic cylinder!
