  • 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, and maybe z for a 3 variable function.

      yeah the gradient is used in normal and constrained optimization problems, o chem tutor has videos on it! (basically to get the 'critical points' u set each part of the gradient equal to 0 then evaluate, then u plug in the point to the original function, calculate this weird thing called D, and depending on if it's positive or negative know if u have a local max or min, the greatest and least are ur absolutes

    For those wondering why multiply with a, b, and c: the general formula for the directional derivative of f(x,y,z) in unit vector *v* is
    ∇f · *v*
    which is why each component of f is multiplied with the corresponding component of *v*.

    when finding the unit vector should we always start with sin first or I can start with any of my choice?

    I have been watching your videos since I was in college, now I am a University student. Many teachers just express and demonstrate their knowledge instead of explaining things in an easy way!. Like they want to prove Monalisa’s nose without showing her face and make things complicated! While a good teacher can explain 20 pages in 3 minutes.

    • @unnameduser624
      @unnameduser624 Před 3 lety +5

      its because (cos, sin) are the coordinates to the unit circle. i think it's different if the problem gives you a point rather than an angle. not sure though.
