(a) Parametrize the surface by considering it as a graph.

the surface.
(c) Parametrize the surface in the variables z and θ using the cylindrical coordinates.

2. For each of the following surfaces, describe the intersection of the surface and the plane
z = k for some k > 0; and the intersection of the surface and the plane y = 0. Further
write the surfaces in parametrized form r(z, θ) using the cylindrical co-ordinates.

revolving this circle about the z-axis. Find a parametric representation of S with the
parameters θ and φ where θ and φ are described as follows. If (x, y, z) is any point on the
surface then θ is the angle between the x-axis and the line joining (0, 0, 0) and (x, y, 0) and
φ is the angle between the line joining (x, y, z) and the center of the moving circle (which
contains (x, y, z)) with the xy-plane.

tion of this circle on the xz-plane is parametrized as ((3 + cos t) cos θ, (3 + cos t) sin θ), 0 ≤
θ ≤ 2π. Since t is varying from 0 to 2π, S is given by r(t, θ) = ((3 + cos t) cos θ, t, (3 +
