with(plots); -1The hyperboloid of two sheets from problem I.  The curves on the surface are the  

slices by planes

The curve from III A: 

 

plot([`+`(`*`(4, `*`(cos(`*`(Pi, `*`(t)))))), `+`(`*`(3, `*`(sin(`*`(Pi, `*`(t)))))), t = 0 .. 1], scaling = constrained); 1

The cardioid from IV, together with the tangent line from part C: 

 

Card := plot([`*`(`+`(1, cos(t)), `*`(sin(t))), `+`(`-`(`*`(`+`(1, cos(t)), `*`(cos(t))))), t = 0 .. `+`(`*`(2, `*`(Pi)))]); -1
