- Sketch the lines in Exercises 45–48 and find Cartesian equations for them.arrow_forwardExercise 3. Read Example 3 (p. 739). Explain how the geometric meaning of the cross product helps solve this example.We won’t be covering the last two subsections, but they might be worth taking a look at. The subsection “Torque” (p. 739 – 740) covers a physical application of the cross product. While the last subsection “Triple or Box Product” (p. 740 – 741) goes over a geometric way that the dot product and cross product interact with each other.arrow_forwardIn each part of Exercises 13–14, use parametric equations to describe the solution set of the linear equation. 13. (a) 7.x – 5y = 3 (b) 3x, – 5x2 + 4x; = 7 (c) -8x, + 2x2 – 5x, + 6x4 = 1 (d) 3v – 8w + 2x – y + 4z = 0arrow_forward
- In Exercises 1–8, give a geometric description of the set of points in space whose coordinates satisfy the given pairs of equations.arrow_forwardIn Exercises 1–6, sketch the given curves together in the appropriate coordinate plane and label each curve with its equation.arrow_forwardeliminate the parameter to obtain an equation in x and yarrow_forward
