For the above plot of the hyperboloid paraboloid $-\left(\frac{x}{a}\right)^2 + \left(\frac{y}{b}\right)^2 = \frac{z}{c}$, find the parameters a, b and c. Note that a, b and c are positive integers between 1 and 6 inclusive. Use the mouse to rotate the surface. Two points on the surface are (2.5, 0, -0.25) and (0, 1, 0.25). a = b = c =

Step 1

5, 0, -0.25) into the equation: $$-\frac{2.5^2}{a^2} + \frac{0^2}{b^2} = \frac{-0.25}{c}$$ Simplify the equation: $$-\frac{6.25}{a^2} = -\frac{0.25}{c}$$ Solve for c: $$c = \frac{0.25a^2}{6.25} = \frac{a^2}{25}$$ Show more…
