A student wishes to model the saddle of a horse. They use a surface described by a function of the
form z = f (x, y) with a saddle point at the origin O. The z-axis is vertically upwards. The x- and
y-axes lie in a horizontal plane, with the x-axis across the horse and the y-axis along the length of
the horse (see diagram).

The arc AOB is part of a parabola which lies in the yz-plane. The arc COD is part of a parabola
which lies in the xz-plane. The saddle is symmetric in both the xz-plane and yz-plane.

The length of the saddle, the distance AB, is to be 0.6 m with both A and B at a height of 0.27 m
above O. The width of the saddle, the distance CD, is to be 0.5 m with both C and D at a depth of
0.4 m below O.

(a) On separate diagrams, sketch the sections x = 0 and y = 0 . [2]

(b) Determine a function f that describes the saddle. [You do not need to state the domain of
function f.] [5]
