3D Graphing Calculator
Advanced 3D surface plotter and graphing calculator. Visualize mathematical functions in three dimensions with customizable ranges, resolution, and colors. Perfect for calculus, geometry, and engineering students.
Graph Controls
Mathematical Syntax
Supports common operators like ^, functions like sin, cos, sqrt, abs, and constants like PI.
How 3D Graphing Works
A 3D graph represents a mathematical relationship between three variables, typically x, y, and z. For every coordinate pair (x, y) in the horizontal plane, the function calculates a height z, creating a surface in three-dimensional space.
- 1Use standard mathematical operators: +, -, *, /, ^
- 2Built-in functions available: sin, cos, tan, exp, log, sqrt, abs
- 3Variables x and y are the independent inputs for the surface
- 4Adjust resolution (segments) for smoother surfaces or better performance
Formula
z = f(x, y)The calculator plots points (x, y, z) where z is determined by your input function of x and y.
Example
Frequently Asked Questions
How do I rotate the graph?
Click and drag anywhere in the 3D view to rotate the camera. Use the scroll wheel to zoom in and out.
What functions can I use?
You can use common math functions like sin(x), cos(y), sqrt(x^2+y^2), abs(x*y), and more. Trigonometric, exponential, and logarithmic functions are all supported.
How do I change the plot resolution?
Use the "Resolution (Segments)" slider. Higher values create a smoother surface but may slow down rendering on older devices.
Can I change the surface color?
Yes, use the color picker or choose from the presets (Teal, Gold, Sunset, Ocean) to customize the appearance of your graph.
