Homework Statement
I am trying to find parametric representation of the right surface of a sphere which was cut along the line y=5.
x^2 + y^2 + z^2 = 36
Homework Equations
The Attempt at a Solution
x^2 + y^2 + z^2 = 36
This is an equation of a sphere with radius given by:
r^2 = 36
r=6
x= r cos(theta)sin(phi)
y= r sin(theta)sin(phi)
z= r cos(theta)
sub x,y,z into original equation to get function with theta,phi as parameters.
Have is the correct way to start? if so, how do I proceed?
