?Show that if the point (a, b, c) lies on the hyperbolic paraboloid \(z=y^2-x^2\), then
Chapter 11, Problem 53(choose chapter or problem)
Show that if the point (a, b, c) lies on the hyperbolic paraboloid \(z=y^2-x^2\), then the lines with parametric equations x=a+t, y=b+t, z=c+2(b-a)t and x=a+t, y=b-t, z=c-2(b+a)t both lie entirely on this paraboloid. (This shows that the hyperbolic paraboloid is what is called a ruled surface; that is, it can be generated by the motion of a straight line. In fact, this exercise shows that through each point on the hyperbolic paraboloid there are two generating lines. The only other quadric surfaces that are ruled surfaces are cylinders, cones, and hyperboloids of one sheet.)
