Example 3.1.9
|
|
On the domain , graph the level surfaces and for the function .
|
|
|
|
Solution
|
|
•
|
Figure 3.1.9(a) shows the level surfaces in red, and in green.
|
•
|
The level curves on each of these level surfaces are included to provide some definition for surface.
|
•
|
The surfaces are drawn with Maple's implicitplot3d command, which assumes defines implicitly.
|
•
|
Table 3.1.9(a) contains the complete syntax for drawing Figure 3.1.9(a). (Select Evaluate in the Context Panel.)

p:=implicitplot3d([W=5,W=15],x=0..3,y=0..3,z=0..3,color=[red,green],style=surfacecontour,lightmodel=none,axes=frame,orientation=[130,70,0]):
print(p);

Of course, the graph of each surface could have been constructed interactively with the Plot Builder, and combined by copy/paste.
