    Solution to Problem Set #3

    1.(a)(30 pts) Change each of the following points from rectangular coordi-
    nates to cylindrical coordinates and spherical coordinates:
    √ √
    (2, 1, −2), ( 2, 1, 1), (−2 3, −2, 3) .
    p √ √
    Solution. (2, 1, −2): Since r = x2 + y 2 = 22 + 12 = 5 and tan θ = xy = 12 , the
    √
    5, arctan 21 , −2 . Similarly,
     
    point in cylindrical coordinates is
    p p
    ρ = x2 + y 2 + z 2 = 22 + 12 + (−2)2 = 3 ,
    tan θ = xy = 12 and cos φ = ρz = −2 3
    so the point in spherical coordinates is
      √    
    3, arctan 12 , π2 + arccos 35 or 3, arctan 21 , π2 + arctan √25 .
     

    √ p q√ √
    ( 2, 1, 1): Since r = x + y = ( 2)2 + 12 = 3 and tan θ = xy =
    2 2 √1 ,
    2
    the
    √   
    point in cylindrical coordinates is 3, arctan √12 , 1 . Similarly,
    p q√
    ρ = x + y + z = ( 2)2 + 12 + 12 = 2 ,
    2 2 2

    tan θ = xy = √12 and cos φ = z


    ρ
    = 1

    so the point in spherical coordinates is
       
    2, arctan √12 , π3 .

    √ p q √
    (−2 3, −2, 3): Since r = x2 + y 2 = (−2 3)2 + (−2)2 = 4 and
    y 1
    =√ ,
    tan θ =
    x 3

    the point in cylindrical coordinates is 4, 6 , 3 . Similarly,

    ρ = x + y + z = (−2 3)2 + (−2)2 + 32 = 5 ,

    tan θ = xy = √1 and cos φ = z = 3 so

    Solution to Problem Set #3 MATH 2850: page 2 of 2

    1.(b) (15 pts) Convert the equation r2 cos(2θ) = z 2 into rectangular coordi-
    nates.
    Solution. Since cos(2θ) = cos2 (θ) − sin2 (θ), x = r cos(θ) and y = r sin(θ), we have
    2 2
    r2 cos(2θ) = r2 cos2 (θ) − sin2 (θ) = r cos(θ) − r sin(θ)
    

    which implies that the equation r2 cos(2θ) = z 2 is x2 − y 2 = z 2 in rectangular


    coordinates. 
    1.(c)(15 pts) Convert the equation ρ sin(φ) = 1 into rectangular coordinates.
    Solution. Since we have
    2 2 2
    ρ sin(φ) = ρ2 sin2 (φ) cos2 (θ) + sin2 (θ) = ρ sin(φ) cos(θ) + ρ sin(φ) sin(θ) ,
    
    p
    the equation ρ sin(φ) = 1 is x2 + y 2 = 1 or x2 + y 2 = 1in rectangular coordi-
    nates. Note that we have used x = ρ sin(φ) cos(θ) and y = ρ sin(φ) sin(θ). 

    2(20 pts) Find a vector function that represents the curve of intersection of
    the cylinder x2 + y 2 = 4 and the surface z = xy.
    Solution. We can parameterize the cylinder x2 + y 2 = 9 by (3 cos(t), 3 sin(t), z).
    Now x = 3 cos(t) and y = 3 sin(t). So z = xy = 3 cos(t) · 3 sin(t) = 9 cos(t) sin(t).
    So the intersection of the cylinder x2 + y 2 = 9 and the surface z = xy can be
    represented by (3 cos(t), 3 sin(t), 9 cos(t) sin(t)). 

    3(20 pts) Find


    pa vector function that represents the curve of intersection of
    the cone z = x2 + y 2 and the plane z = x + 2.
    p
    Solution. Both equations (z = px2 + y 2 and z = x + 2) are solved for z, so we
    can substitute to eliminate z: x2 + y 2 = x + 2 ⇒ x2 + y 2 = (x + 2)2 = x2 + 4x + 4
    2
    ⇒ x = y4 − 1. We can determine the parametric equation for the curve C of
    2 2 2
    intersection by choosing y = t, then x = t4 − 1 and z = x + 2 = t4 − 1 + 2 = t4 + 1.
    2 2
    Thus a vector function representation is ( t4 − 1, t, t4 + 1).
