(732, #55) Try to sketch by hand the curve of intersection
of the circular cylinder
and the parabolic cylinder
.
Then find parametric equations for this curve using the parameter t, where
,
and use these equations and a computer to graph the curve.
Solution: The sketch should like somewhat like this:
As for the parametric equations is
then
Thus the parametric equations are:
The curve looks like a saddle:
