Question

Define Gradient vector and directional derivative. Find the direction in which $f(x,y) = \frac{x^2}{2} + \frac{y^2}{2}$ increases and decreases most rapidly at the point $(1,1)$ . What is the direction of zero change in $f$ at $(1,1)$ ? Derivative of $f(x,y)$ at the point $(1,1)$ in the direction $v = 3i - 4j$ . [5+2+3]
