Examples of 'surface of revolution' in a sentence

Meaning of "surface of revolution"

In mathematics, the term 'surface of revolution' refers to a three-dimensional shape created by rotating a two-dimensional curve or shape around an axis. The resulting surface is symmetric and exhibits rotational symmetry along the axis of revolution. This concept is commonly used in geometry and calculus to analyze and study the properties of curved surfaces and objects

  • A surface formed when a given curve is revolved around a given axis. If the resulting surface is a closed one, it also defines a solid of revolution.
