MATH 126 Lecture Notes - Lecture 15: Contour Line

Contour Map

Explain how to sketch a contour map of a function of x and y.

Sketching a Contour Map describes the level curves of the function. Sketch a contour map of the surface using level curves for the give x-values.

Sketching a Contour Map

In Exercises 51-58, describe the level curves of the function. Sketch a contour map of the surface using level curves for the given x-values.
