MATH 209 Calculus, III Volker Runde Parametric surfaces and their areas
Denition A parametric surface S is given by a vector function r(u , v ) = x (u , v )i + y (u , v )j + z (u , v )k for (u , v ) in some region D R2 . We call D the parametric domain of S .

Example A plane passing through a point P0 with position vector r0 containing two non-parallel vectors a and b. Set r(u , v ) = r0 + u a + v b for (u , v ) R2 . If we restrict (u , v ) to [0, 1] [0, 1], we obtain the parallelogram with vertex P0 and sides a and b.

The case of a parallelogram Let S be a parallelogram with vertex r0 spanned by two vectors a and b that are not parallel. Then S is given by r(u , v ) = r0 + u a + v b for u , v [0, 1]. The area A(S ) of S is: A(S ) = |a b|.

The general case Let S be given by r(u , v ) = x (u , v )i + y (u , v )j + z (u , v )k for (u , v ) D . Let P0 D be a point with position vector u0 , v0 . Then r(u0 , v ) denes a curve C1 lying in S . The tangent vector to C1 at r(u0 , v0 ) is rv := y z x (u0 , v0 )i + (u0 , v0 )j + (u0 , v0 )k. v v v
The general case (continued) Similarly, dene a curve C2 via r(u , v0 ), and obtain a tangent vector to C2 at r(u0 , v0 ): ru := x y z (u0 , v0 )i + (u0 , v0 )j + (u0 , v0 )k. u u u
We call S smooth if ru rv = 0 throughout. The tangent plane to S at r(u0 , v0 ) is the plane containing r(u0 , v0 ) with the normal vector ru rv .
