Surfaces in Three-Space
The graph of a 3-variable equation which can be written in the form
F(x,y,z) = 0 or sometimes z = f(x,y) (if you can solve for z) is a surface
in 3D. One technique for graphing them is to graph cross-sections
(intersections of the surface with well-chosen planes) and/or traces
(intersections of the surface with the coordinate planes).

A cylinder is the set of all points on lines parallel to l that intersect C
where C is a plane curve and l is a line intersecting C, but not in the
plane of C.
