What is a lobachevskian geom? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hyperbolic_geometry Or a Reim geom? http://images.google.com/images?q=Riemannian%20geometry > And, please, if you have extra time could you draw a Cartesian three > dimensional coordinate system of about > the same size as the saddle and ball. This may not have occured to you but some people may have no idea what a Cartesian three dimensional coordinate system is. They are even less likely to know when you have abreviated something like Riem. Whenever one group with its own language is making a request of a group that has its own language it is best to provide a referance source to any terms that group one may know but group two my have no experiance with. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cartesian_coordinate_system Now, which of systems listed there did you want illustrated? How big did you want this thing?
