Theorem: Directional Derivative
If f is a differentiable function of x and y, then the directional derivative of f in the direction of the unit vector
u = cos(0)i + sin(0)j is
Dyf(x, y) = f,(x, y) cos(0) + f,(x, y) sin(0).
to find the directional derivative of the function at P in the direction of v.
f(x, y) = x²y, P(-9, 9), v = 3i – 4j
