Consider the real valued function of two variables with role

Find . Evaluate and at (1,0). Mark arrows representing the direction of these vectors at the corresponding points on a diagram of the (x,y)-plane. Calculate the directional derivative of f at the point (1,1) in the direction alpha = pi/6. What is the direction of greatest increase of f at (1,1)? Find fxx, fxy, fyy. Find the second order Taylor polynomial of f about the point (1,0). Write down the tangent plane to f at (1,0). Also find the tangent plane to f at (0,0).

Explanation / Answer

let real valued function f(x,y) be x^2+y^2

df(x,y)=2x+2y

f'(1/root 2,1/2)=root 2+1

f'(1/root 2,1/2)=root 2-1

f'(1/2,0)=1

f'(1,0)=2
