Partial Derivatives
Partial Derivatives are simply holding all
other variables constant (and act like
constants for the derivative) and only
taking the derivative with respect to a
given variable.
Given z=f(x,y), the partial derivative of
zwithrespecttoxis:
fx(x,y)=zx=@z
@x=@f(x,y)
@x
likewise for partial with respect to y:
fy(x,y)=zy=@z
@y=@f(x,y)
@y
Notation
For fxyy, work ”inside to outside” fx
then fxy,thenfxyy
fxyy =@3f
@x@2y,
For @3f
@x@2y, work right to left in the
denominator
Gradients
The Gradient of a function in 2 variables
is rf=<f
x,f
y>
The Gradient of a function in 3 variables
is rf=<f
x,f
y,f
z>
Chain Rule(s)
Take the Partialderivative with respect
to the first-order variables of the
function times the partial (or normal)
derivative of the first-order variable to
the ultimate variable you are looking for
summed with the same process for other
first-order variables this makes sense for.
Example:
let x = x(s,t), y = y(t) and z = z(x,y).
zthenhasfirstpartialderivative:
@z
@xand @z
@y
xhasthepartialderivatives:
@x
@sand @x
@t
and y has the derivative:

In this case (with z containing x and y
as well as x and y both containing s and
t), the chain rule for @z

@s=@z

Limits and Continuity
Limits in 2 or more variables
Limits taken over a vectorized limit just
evaluate separately for each component
of the limit.
Strategies to show limit exists
1. Plug in Numbers, Everything is Fine
2. Algebraic Manipulation
-factoring/dividing out
-use trig identites
3. Change to polar coords
if(x, y)!(0,0) ,r!0
Strategies to show limit DNE
1. Show limit is di↵erent if approached
from di↵erent paths
(x=y, x=y2,etc.)
2. Switch to Polar coords and show the
limit DNE.
Continunity
Afn,z=f(x,y), is continuous at (a,b)
if
f(a,b)=lim
(x,y)!(a,b)f(x,y )
Which means:
1. The limit exists
2. The fn value is defined
3. They are the same value
Directional Derivatives
Let z=f(x,y) be a fuction, (a,b) ap point
in the domain (a valid input point) and
ˆua unit vector (2D).
The Directional Derivative is then the
derivative at the point (a,b) in the
direction of ˆuor:
D~uf(a, b)=ˆu·rf(a,b)
This will return a scalar. 4-D version:
D~uf(a, b, c)=ˆu·rf(a,b, c)
Tangent Planes
let F(x,y,z) = k be a surface and P =
(x0,y
0,z
0)beapointonthatsurface.
Equation of a Tangent Plane:
rF(x0,y
0,z
0)·<xx0,yy0,zz0>
Approximations
let z=f(x,y)beadi↵erentiable
function total di↵erential of f = dz
dz =rf·<dx,dy>
This is the approximate change in z
The actual change in z is the di↵erence
in z values:
z=zz1
Maxima and Minima
Internal Points
1. Take the Partial Derivatives with
respect to X and Y (fxand fy)(Canuse
gradient)
2. Set derivatives equal to 0 and use to
solve system of equations for x and y
3. Plug back into original equation for z.
Use Second Derivative Testfor whether
points are local max, min, or saddle
Second Partial Derivative Test
1. Find all (x,y) points such that
rf(x,y)=~
0
2. Let D=fxx(x, y )fyy(x, y)f2
xy(x, y)
IF (a) D >0ANDfxx<0,f(x,y) is
local max value
(b) D >0ANDfxx(x,y)>0 f(x,y) is
local min value
(c) D <0, (x,y,f(x,y)) is a saddle point
(d) D = 0, test is inconclusive
3. Determine if any boundary point
gives min or max. Typically, we have to
parametrize boundary and then reduce
to a Calc 1 type of min/max problem to
solve.
The following only apply only if a
boundary is given
1. check the corner points
2. Check each line (0 x5would
give x=0 and x=5 )
On Bounded Equations, this is the
global min and max...second derivative
test is not needed.
Lagrange Multipliers
Given a function f(x,y) with a constraint
g(x,y), solve the following system of
equations to find the max and min
points on the constraint (NOTE: may
need to also find internal points.):
rf=rg
g(x,y)=0(orkif given)
Double Integrals

integral,

When using polar coordinates,

Surface Area of a Curve
let z = f(x,y) be continuous over S (a
closed Region in 2D domain)
Then the surface area of z = f(x,y) over
S is:

that order
