Thank you all for all the help so far. To be honest I am now more confused than I was before, as you are now saying that the projections of the spheres are not the same as the circles created by these spheres on the planes. If you could be kind enough to point me to some online tutorial or...

I know the planes' coordinates, so I should be able to find the projection of the sphere on these planes (the circles that the sphere creates on the planes on intersection).

Thanks for the help. Now how should I find the projected circle from the below equation: (x−2)^ 2 +(y−4)^ 2 +81=4 I need the circles center and also its radius on the plane. Thanks.

Please bear with my ignorance. I will try to explain the complete scenario . I have a 3D cuboid (with planes as front, back, left, right, top and bottom) and three spheres called s1, s2 and s3. s1's center is at (2,4,5) and radius is 2. s2's center is at (-2,3,2) and radius is 1. s3's center is...

Thanks a lot Michael for your replies and help. If I have a cuboid (front, back, top, bottom, left and right planes) will there be two XY (front OR back), two YZ(left OR right) and two XZ (top OR bottom) planes ? Or am I thinking wrong. Now keeping my confusion in mind, can you tell me if...

Suppose there is a sphere with a certain radius in this cuboid and it only intersects with the YZ plane. There is another sphere that has some radius and it intersects with any two planes and so on...

I want to find the equations for the circles (formed on the planes) when a sphere cuts the XY, YZ and XZ planes. What I am trying to achieve is a software application that will have a 3D cuboid and inside this cuboid there will be many spheres. Now I want to find the circles created by these...
