1. 5.7 Use Figures in Three – Dimensional Space Pg.205

2. Topics Covered Plotting in the 3 –D System –Rectangular Prism –Point Use of the Distance and Midpoint Formula in the 3 – D System –Between two points in the 3 – D system Today we will Recognize and Graph the Equation of a Plane and Write the Equation for a Sphere TODAY

3. Recognize and Graph the Equation of a Plane Graph the Equation 3x + 2y + 4z = 12 –In order to solve we will use the intercept method. Once we have the intercepts of each axis, we then plot the points on the three axes and connect the “three” dots. –It is a Triangle

4. 3x + 2y + 4z = 12 Intercept Method +y +x +z Plot and connect the points

5. Write the Equation for a Sphere Just as we expanded the equations for Midpoint and Distance, we can do this for the equation for a sphere. –A sphere is a 3 – D circle, So what is the equation of a circle? –We will expand using the “z” variable. –But now we may have to use “Complete the Square” on three variables……………. HA HA HA HA HA

6. Write the Equation of a Sphere in Standard Form with center (1, 5, -3) and radius = 5 Standard Form x 0, y 0, z 0, are (1, 5, -3)
