Slide 6, Exercise 1.
Find an equation of the tangent plane to the elliptic paraboloid 4x2+y2-16z=0 at the
point (2,4,2).
F(xo,yo,zo) = 4x2+y2-16z=0
P (2,4,2)
Scalar Multiplication: v = < a, b, c > ; mv = < ma, mb, mc > = m < a, b, c >
Therefore;
< 16, 8, -16 > = 8 < 2, 1, -2 >
2(x-2)+1(y-4)-2)(z-2) = 0
2x-4+y-4-2z+4 = 0
2x+y-2z-4 = 0
2x+y-2z-32=0
Slide 8, Exercise 2.
Find symmetric equations of the normal line to the surface 4x2+y2-16z=0 at (2,4,2).
F(xo,yo,zo) = 4x2+y2-16z=0
P (2,4,2)
Scalar Multiplication: v = < a, b, c > ; mv = < ma, mb, mc > = m < a, b, c >
Therefore;
< 16, 8, -16 > = 8 < 2, 1, -2 >
