Consider the hyperboloid of one sheet given by
One of the properties of the surface of a hyperboloid of one sheet is that it is a ruled surface, which means that for any point on the surface there exists a straight line passing through the point and fully contained in the surface. To verify this, a point on the given hyperboloid surface is . Find two distinct lines passing through and fully contained in the hyperboloid surface. Enter the sum of the angles (in degrees) that the two lines make with the horizontal plane (the plane).

Find points A , B from system
f ( x , y , z ) = 4 x 2 + 2 5 y 2 − 9 z 2 − 1 = 0
z = 0
f x ( P 0 ) ( x − P 0 x ) + f y ( P 0 ) ( y − P 0 y ) + f z ( P 0 ) ( z − P 0 z ) = 0 - tangent plane in P 0
P 0 = ( 2 2 , 5 3 , 6 )
Here
x A = 5 2 ( 2 − 2 3 ) , y A = 2 2 + 3 , z A = 0
x B = 5 2 ( 2 + 2 3 ) , y B = − 2 2 + 3 , z B = 0
And next find angles
∠ P 0 A P p and ∠ P 0 B P p , P p = ( 2 2 , 5 3 , 0 ) .
First way
c o s ∠ P 0 A P p = ∣ A P 0 ∣ ⋅ ∣ A P p ∣ A P 0 ⋅ A P p
c o s ∠ P 0 B P p = ∣ B P 0 ∣ ⋅ ∣ B P p ∣ B P 0 ⋅ B P p
or second way from triangles P 0 A P p , P 0 B P p
A P 0 ⋅ sin ∠ P 0 A P p = P 0 P p = 6
B P 0 ⋅ sin ∠ P 0 B P p = P 0 P p = 6
Find angles
Wolfram 1
∠ P 0 A P p = 3 1 . 4 9 °
Wolfram 2
∠ P 0 B P p = 4 7 . 5 5 °
Answer 7 9 . 0 4 ° .
