Hi all,

I'm new to the site and congratulations to whoever did it. It's a v useful tool for Maths students and teachers.
But now coming to the point, I've got a cruel doubt with a function sketch in my Maths assignment. Really appreciate if someone could give me a clue on how to get the graphic done.

It's something like: f(x,y) = max {0,x^2+y^2-1} over the domain ||x||, ||y|| < or = 2. I need to roughly sketch the function and its domain.

thanks,
Ulisses

If you are an A+ member, you can plot x^2+y^2-1 using the interactive function graphing calculator:

www.webgraphing.com/graph3d.jsp

In the x-y plane, you will have the graph of the circle of radius 1 centered at the origin: x^2+y^2-1=0, corresponding to z=0. Every cross section parallel to the x-y plane, z=k^2, for k>0, will be a circle of radius k. Cross sections to the other coordinate planes are parabolas. The base of the 3d solid is the disk in the x-y coordinate plane x^2+y^2<=1.

Also, the domain is the square: -2<=x<=2, -2<=y<=2.
