 July 28th, 2017, 07:37 AM #2 Math Team   Joined: Jan 2015 From: Alabama Posts: 3,236 Thanks: 884 The intersection of the surface $\displaystyle z= \sqrt{x^2+ y^2}$ and the plane x= 1 is, of course, $\displaystyle z= \sqrt{y^2+ 1}$. I would think that x= 1, y= t, $\displaystyle z= \sqrt{t^2+ 1}$ would be an obvious parameterization. Thanks from SenatorArmstrong and sarajoveska

I did that too. But I was not sure about it cos I later got some weird derivatives. Thank you.

If you tell us the weird derivatives, we can tell you whether they are correct or not!

I used y by mistake it should be t.

First parameterization and then to find flexion of the parametrized curve.
