Lecture Materials

Below you will find copies of the overheads that I use in lecture. Most of lecture I write out during class, so if you missed class, then you will want to get a copy of the notes from a classmate.

12-1 Notes: Intro to 3D, axes, coordinate planes, distance, and spheres.
12-2 Notes: Intro to vectors; addition, magnitude, scalar multiplication, unit vector, dot product.
12-3 Notes: Dot product facts; angle between vectors, orthogonality, projections.
12-4 Notes: Cross product facts; computation, orthogonal to the given vectors, areas of parallelograms/triangles.
12-5 Notes: Lines; Finding a point and a direction vector. Planes; Finding a point and a normal vector.
12-5 Many, Many Practice Problems and Solutions.
12-6 Lecture Outline and Notes: Discussion of seven special 3D Surfaces that you need to know:
1. Cylinders, 2. Spheres/Ellipsoids, 3/4. Paraboloids (Circular or Hyperbolic), 5. Cones, 6/7. Hyperboloids (of One Sheet or Two Sheets)
13.1 Notes: Intro to 3D and vector curves: how to visualize (surface of motion), thinking in terms of points or position vectors.
