75 :     The quadratic surface is an ellipsoid, since its equation has the form \( \left( \frac{x}{a} \right)^2 + \left( \frac{y}{b} \right)^2 + \left( \frac{z}{c} \right)^2=1\), for \(a=$a, b=$b, c=1\).
76 :     $PAR
77 :     To find the trace obtained by intersecting the ellipsoid with the plane \(z=$z\), we set \(z=$z\) in the equation of the ellipsoid. This gives $PAR
78 :     \( \left( \frac{x}{$a} \right)^2 + \left( \frac{y}{$b} \right)^2 + $z^2=1\)
79 :     $BR
80 :     \( \left( \frac{x}{$a} \right)^2 + \left( \frac{y}{$b} \right)^2=$d\)
81 :     $BR
82 :     We conclude that the trace is an $ans2.
