1 Parametric Surfaces and their Area Part II

2 Parametric Surfaces – Tangent Plane The line u = u 0 is mapped to the gridline C 2 =r(u 0,v) Consider the parametric surface defined over some domain D. The line v = v 0 is mapped to the gridline C 1 =r(u,v 0 )

3 Parametric surfaces – Tangent Plane We can use this fact to find the equation of the tangent plane to a parametric surface at a given point. Thus the normal vector to the tangent plane is Cartesian coordinates of the point corresponding to u = 2, Example 6: Find the equation of the tangent plane to Equation of tangent plane: 0(x−0) − 2(y − 2)+2(z − 2)=0 Note that the surface is a cone. Can you see that from the parametric equations?

4 Parametric Surfaces – Surface Area Consider the parametric surface S described by the equation defined over some domain D.

5 Area of the surface S is Parametric Surfaces and their area
