The traces parallel to the xy-plane are ellipses and the traces parallel to the xz- and yz-planes are hyperbolas. Specifically, the trace in the xy-plane is ellipse x232+y222=1,x232+y222=1, the trace in the xz-plane is hyperbola x232z252=1,x232z252=1, and the trace in the yz-plane is hyperbola y222z252=1y222z252=1 (see the following figure).

This figure has four images. The first image is an ellipse centered at the origin of a rectangular coordinate system. It intersects the x axis at -3 and 3. It intersects the y axis at -2 and 2. The second image is the graph of a hyperbola. It is two curves one opening in the negative x direction and a symmetric one in the positive x direction. The third image is the graph of a hyperbola in the y z plane. It is opening in the negative y direction and a symmetric curve opening in the positive y direction. The fourth image is a 3-dimensional surface. It top and bottom cross sections would be circular. A vertical intersection would be a hyperbola.
