Homework Statement Given the following quadric surfaces:
1. Classify the quadric surface.
2. Find its reduced equation.
3. Find the equation of the axes on which it takes its reduced form.
Homework Equations
The quadric surfaces are:
(1) ##3x^2 + 3y^2 + 3z^2 - 2xz + 2\sqrt{2}(x+z)-2 = 0 ##...
I will reply with my attempt at the rest of the problem shortly, but regarding the similarity of triangles BHO and BCA:
H and C are both on the same line, as A and O are on the parallel. Is this enough to prove that the triangles share two angles and must thus be similar?
I understand! So the adjacent angle to the exterior angle I'm given must be 180 - 105 = 75, and the other two must be 105/2 = 52.5. Thus a must be 52.5 + 75 = 127.5
Homework Statement
OK, I am new to these kinds of problems and I am trying to learn the appropriate properties but they are proving somewhat difficult for me... I hope I am going in the right direction.
