Contour lines are the intersection of a graph with a constant plane, forming a curve. In the context of functions of three variables, contour lines represent the constant level surfaces of the function. By equating the function to a constant, we can find the contour lines and use them to understand the behavior and shape of the function. an example of how to find contour lines for a function of three variables and how to determine if a parameterized curve lies on a contour line.

I mean, contour lines is when you equate a function to a constant, but what do we want to see this for? where does the "curve" part come in? Well, that's what we want to find out!
the representation of many contour lines is called: Contour Map. Example:
Note : this surface is the top of a circular cone.

down, making the circle formed at the intersection larger or smaller.
Remark 1 : You may also encounter these questions:
(1,2)". In this case, simply replace the values in the function.
That is, this is the level 22 curve of the function. Let's imagine we have the following contour map:
Then, the graph of the function will be: What we did here was simply to use the contour lines or contour map of the function to find its graph. This time we will see how to find the domain of functions of 33 variables. The process is similar to that for functions of 22 variables. The difference is that now the domain is no longer a region of the plane, but of space, i.e. a surface. That is why it is important to know how to draw surfaces , such as a sphere. To determine the domain we have to analyse the possible restrictions of the function, which are: ∙∙ Even root : the term inside the function cannot be negative. ∙∙ Quotient : the denominator cannot be zero. ∙∙ Logarithm : the term inside the function must be strictly positive. As with the 22-variable functions. Let's find and draw the domain of the function:
The only restriction on the function is the logarithm: the term within it must be strictly positive. That is to say: 1−x2−y2−z2>0 ⇒x2+y2+z2<11−x2−y2−z2>0 ⇒x2+y2+z2<
the origin. The point is that the spherical envelope itself is not part of the
important thing to clarify. The drawing looks like this: A small tip : generally for these exercises the shapes you will have to draw are the same (spheres, cones, cylinders, etc). What changes is how the exercise is set up. We are going to study what happens when we mix contour lines with the parameterisation of curves. For this reason, it is essential that they handle well the parameterisation of the most classical curves (straight lines, ellipses...). It is also good to know how to draw a curve when faced with its parameterisation, but that will come with practice.
We have already seen that contour lines are excellent tools for graphing functions of 22 variables because by putting a few of them together we can "see" the final graph. Contour lines are the equivalent of contour lines for functions of 33 variables. These give an insight into the behaviour of the function, and to calculate them
So if we want to describe the level surfaces of the function.
The latter is quite intuitive: there is no such thing as an object that has "negative dimensions". As you solve a couple of level surfaces you will notice that the sphere gets larger and larger, so the graph will be:
