21-259: Calculus in Three Dimensions
Exam 1
Spring 2025
1. (8 pts) Determine whether the following two lines are intersecting, parallel, skew, or equal:
L1 : x = 2t, y = t, z = 2
L2 : x = 1− s, y = 8+ s, z = 7+ s
2. (4 pts) A sled is pulled by exerting a force of 100 N on a rope that makes an angle of 30◦ with the horizontal. Find the work done in pulling the sled 20 m.
3. (8 pts) Find the limit, if it exists:
4. (8 pts) Find parametric equations for the tangent line to the graph of the vector function
at the point (5,9,−9).
5. (8 pts) Find an equation of the plane passing through the points P = (1,2,3), Q = (2,−1,4), and R = (4,3,−2). Write it in the form. Ax +B y +C z +D = 0.
6. (6 pts) Consider the surface given by the equation −x2 + y2 − 2y + z2 + 6z = −9. Categorize the surface and give a sketch.
7. (8 pts) Reparametrize the curve r (t) = <3sint, √7t,3cos t> in terms of arc length from a starting point of (0,0,3). Then find the point which is located exactly π units of arc length from the starting point.
8. (Math bonus, 4 pts) Find the ditsance between the parallel planes:
6z = 4y −2x, 9z = 1−3x +6y
9. (Pop culture bonus, 2 pts) Choose ONE of the following:
(a) “I could do this all day.” Who said it, and what movie is it from?
(b) What does “i.e.” stand for in Latin, and what is the English translation?
