HI! I have the following problem :
Let A1 = x^2 + y^2 + z^2 = R^2 (* be a sphere *)
A2 = x^2/a^2 + y^2/b^2 + z^2/c^2 = 1 (* be a ellisoid *)
with
c>b>a
and
c>R>a
Plot the intersection of A1 and A2 for c>R>a.
I can do this on MAPLE, but get messed up because of the lines showing up
through the back . I think Mma has a hidden line removal facility tyhat
would come in handy here.
regards,
bappa.
