Partial Diff Flashcards

Total derivative
dF = (𝜕F/𝜕x) dx + (𝜕F/𝜕y) dy
Finding stationary point
𝜕F/𝜕x = 𝜕F/𝜕y = 0
Classifying Stationary points Formula
Δ = (Fxy(a,b))^2-Fxx(a,b)Fyy(a,b) where a and b are the coordinates of the stationary point
Classifying stationary points meaning
Δ>0 Saddle point
Δ<0 and Fxx(a,b)<0 Max
Δ<0 and Fxx(a,b)>0 Min
dΦ/dr
(δΦ/δx)(δx/δr) + (δΦ/δy)(δy/δr)
dΦ/dθ
(δΦ/δx)(δx/δθ) + (δΦ/δy)(δy/δθ)
