Chapter 12: Q. 35 (page 953)

In Exercises $35 - 38$ , find the directional derivative of the given function at the specified point $P$ and in the direction of the given vector $v$ .
$f (x, y) = x^{2} 鈭� y^{2} at P = (3, 3), v = 鉄� 鈭� 1, 5 鉄�$

Short Answer

The function of directional derivative is $鈭� f (P) . u = \frac{- 18}{13} \sqrt{26}$ .

Step by step solution

Directional derivative of function.

For a given function $P = (x_{0}, y_{0}) = (3, 3)$ and $v = (- 1, 5)$ , we must find the directional derivative $f (x, y) = x^{2} - y^{2}$ .

$鈭� v 鈭� = \sqrt{鈭� 1^{2} + 5^{2}} = \sqrt{26}$

$鈭� u = (伪, 尾) = (\frac{鈭� \sqrt{26}}{26}, \frac{5 \sqrt{26}}{26})$

Directional unit vector.

The directional derivative of a function at point $P$ with direction unit vector $u$ is computed as follows:

localid="1650641425421" $鈭� f (P) 鈰� u = 鈭� f (3, 3) 脳 u = ({\frac{d f}{d x}|}_{(3, 3)} i + {\frac{d f}{d y}|}_{(3, 3)} j) 脳 (\frac{鈭� \sqrt{26}}{26} i + \frac{5 \sqrt{26}}{26} j)$

localid="1650641448850" $= [(2 x)_{(3, 3)^{3}} i + (鈭� 2 y)_{(3, 3)} j] 脳 (\frac{鈭� \sqrt{26}}{26} i + \frac{5 \sqrt{26}}{26} j)$

localid="1650641466180" $= (6 i 鈭� 6 j) 脳 (\frac{鈭� \sqrt{26}}{26} i + \frac{5 \sqrt{26}}{26} j)$

$= (\frac{鈭� 6 \sqrt{26}}{26} 鈭� \frac{30 \sqrt{26}}{26})$

$= \frac{鈭� 36 \sqrt{26}}{26}$

$鈭� f (P) . u = \frac{- 18}{13} \sqrt{26}$
