Forums - General - Calculus III Help

Hey vgcharters...I have a calculus 3 test tomorrow morning, and the teacher was nice enough to give us a previous test to work on.  Only problem is I don't know how to do all of the problems :(...so I figured you could help :)

So the current question I'm having trouble with is:

Find parametric equations for the curve of intersection of the surfaces x(squared) plus y(squared) = 16 and x plus z = 5.

I feel like it is going to just be a stupid easy answer, but I can't think of what to do.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.


Thanks!

Edit 1: Also, I'm having a little trouble how to write a set of parametric equations for a plane passing through (1,3,2), (2,-3,-2), and (0,5,0)...the parametric equations are what seem to be killing me at the moment :(
