Directional derivative

11_5_1 Directional Derivative of a Multivariable Function Part 1

Understanding that a partial derivative refers to a rate of change in the direction of a certain axis, we now look at the rate of change in any direction. The direction is indicated by a unit vector, in other words it has a dimension of one and is therefore only its direction is important

Directional derivative of f(x,y)

Free ebook http://tinyurl.com/EngMathYT I present an example where I calculate the derivative of a function of two variables in a particular direction. In particular, I take the derivative of $f(x,y) := 1 - x^2/2 - y^4/4$ in the direction of the vector ${\bf u} := (1,1)$. I solve the

Directional Derivatives | What's the slope in any direction?

A directional derivative gives the slope in any particular direction, similar to partial derivatives which give the slope just in the x or y directions. We formally define directional derivatives by modifying the familiar limit definition of the derivative for when you move along some vect

How To Find The Directional Derivative and The Gradient Vector

This Calculus 3 video tutorial explains how to find the directional derivative and the gradient vector. The directional derivative is the product of the gradient vector and the unit vector. To find the gradient vector, you need to find the partial derivatives of f with respect to x, y, a
