Homework Statement
Sketch a picture of the cone x = sqrt(y^2+z^2) , and elliptic paraboloid x = 2−y^2−z^2 on the same grid.
Although the picture does not have to be perfect, indicate clearly the orientation of both figures relative to coordinate axes. Identify the curve at the intersection of the surfaces.
Homework Equations
The Attempt at a Solution
What does it mean to identify the curve at the intersection?
My thinking is that this means that I have to set these two equations equal to each other, and solve, resulting in some curve?
Am I on the right track?
