1 Unit #20 : Functions of Many Variables, and Vectors in R 2 and R 3 Goals: To introduce tangent planes for functions of two variables. To consider functions of more than two variables and their level surfaces. To study the differential of a function and its interpretation as the linear approximation of measurement error. To learn about vectors. Reading: Study Sections 12.5, 14.3, 13.1, and 13.2.
2 2 Local Linearity (Tangent Plane) Reading: Section Just as a graph of a function of a single variable looks like a straight line when you zoom in to a point, the graph of a function f of two variables looks flat when you zoom in to a point (a,b,f(a,b)) on it.
3 Unit 20 Functions of Many Variables, and Vectors in R 2 and R 3 3 Let us write the equation of the tangent plane to z = f(x,y) in point/slope form: z = c+m(x a)+n(y b), What is the slope of f(x,y) in the x direction at (a,b)? What is the slope of the tangent plane in the x direction at (a,b)?
4 4 Based on those calculations, if we are given f(x, y), and want the tangent plane at (a,b), what values should we pick for the slopes m and n in the tangent plane formula? If the tangent plane passes through (a,b,f(a,b)), what value do we need for c in z = c+m(x a)+n(y b)?
5 Unit 20 Functions of Many Variables, and Vectors in R 2 and R 3 5 Tangent Plane The plane tangent to z = f(x,y) at the point (x,y) = (a,b) is defined by z = f(a,b)+f x (a,b)(x a)+f y (a,b)(y b) Thiscan be usedto define thelocal linearapproximationto f(x,y)at points(x,y) near (a,b): f(x,y) f(a,b)+f x (a,b)(x a)+f y (a,b)(y b) Notethesimilarityoftherighthandsideofatangentlineformulaforsinglevariable functions.
6 6 An alternate form of this same relationship is f f x (a,b) x+f y (a,b) y We will revisit use these two forms interchangeably, depending on whether we want to calculate local changes in f(x,y), or the estimated values of f(x,y).
7 Unit 20 Functions of Many Variables, and Vectors in R 2 and R 3 7 Example: What is the equation of the tangent plane to the graph of the function f(x,y) = 3xe y/2 at (1,2,3e)?
8 8 Use your answer to the preceding question to find an approximate value for f(0.95,2.03) and use a calculator to check the accuracy of your answer.
9 Unit 20 Functions of Many Variables, and Vectors in R 2 and R Example: Let f(x,y) = 2+x 2 2x+y2. Find the points on the graph where the tangent plane is parallel to the (x, y)-plane (i.e. horizontal).

12 Unit 20 Functions of Many Variables, and Vectors in R 2 and R 3 11 Functions of More Than Two Variables Reading: Section Example: (Temperature in this Room) To specify a point in the room, you must specify three coordinates (x,y,z). So, the temperature is a function of three variables: T = T(x,y,z). What is another variable that we could potentially include in this function, that would make temperature a function of four variables?
13 12 Pictures for a Function of Three Variables To picture f(x,y,z)by means of a graph is not very useful. The graph would have to have the following definition: {(x,y,z,w) : w = f(x,y,z)}. That is, it would be a set in 4 dimensional space, which is not something we can directly visualize. However, we can make use of the analogue of the contour diagram. SupposewepickaconstantC andcollectallthepoints(x,y,z)forwhichf(x,y,z) = C. In general, this gives a surface called a level surface. By sketching a number of level surfaces, we can get a sense of the function f. [See also H-H, Examples 2-5 in Section 12.5.]

16 Unit 20 Functions of Many Variables, and Vectors in R 2 and R 3 15 Partial Derivatives in Higher Dimensions General Partial Derivatives In general, for a function of several variables f(x 1,...,x n ), the partial derivative f x i (x 1,...,x n ) is the derivative obtained by holding all other variables fixed. If f(x,y,z) = xe yz +z 2 cos(x 2 y), find f z.
17 16 If g(x,y,z) = x2 y +3ye zy 2x, find g y. If h(x,y,z) = sin(xy)+xz 3, find h x (0,2,3).
18 Unit 20 Functions of Many Variables, and Vectors in R 2 and R 3 17 Local Linearity for a Function of Three Variables The local linearity of f(x,y,z) for points (x,y,z) near (a,b,c) is described by an analogous formula to the one used for functions of two variables: f(x,y,z) f(a,b,c) +f x (a,b,c)(x a) +f y (a,b,c)(y b) +f z (a,b,c)(z c)
19 18 Example: Use local linearity around (6, 3, 1) to find an approximate value for (6.02)2 +(2.96) 3 +(1.01) 4.
20
21 Unit 20 Functions of Many Variables, and Vectors in R 2 and R 3 19 The Differential Reading: Section Two forms of the two-variable local linearity we have seen are f(x,y) f(a,b)+f x (a,b)(x a)+f y (a,b)(y b) and f f x (a,b) x+f y (a,b) y
22 20 If x and y are allowed to get smaller and smaller, this approximate inequality becomes more nearly accurate. In the limit, mathematicians change the values into d values and call them differentials. In the limit, we obtain an expression with an equality instead of an approximation: df = f x (a,b)dx+f y (a,b)dy Conceptually, mostpeoplethinkofthisasaformulafor changeinf forverysmall changes in x and y.
23 Unit 20 Functions of Many Variables, and Vectors in R 2 and R 3 21 For a function of three variables, f(x,y,z), the local linearity can be expressed in similar ways: f(x,y,z) f(a,b,c) +f x (a,b,c) (x a) +f y (a,b,c) (y b) +f z (a,b,c) (z c) f f x (a,b,c) x +f y (a,b,c) y +f z (a,b,c) z df = f x (a,b,c)dx +f y (a,b,c)dy +f z (a,b,c)dz
24 22 Using Linearity/Differentials for Estimates of Error Bounds In scientific experiments, it is important to be able to provide estimates of the accuracy of your measurements and to derive estimates of the accuracy of your conclusions. Differentials, or linear approximations, are the key to making this kind of calculation simple.
25 Unit 20 Functions of Many Variables, and Vectors in R 2 and R 3 23 Error Bounds For a 2-variable function, local linearity gives us f f x (a,b) x+f y (a,b) y To avoid sign confusion, errors are often given in the form (measured value) ± (error). This means that, if we measured x, x < (max x error). In these cases we can estimate the maximum (positive) error in the function output using error bound f x (a,b) (max x) + f y (a,b) (max y) The same result applies to 3- and higher-variable functions, with an additional term for each variable.
26 24 Example: Suppose we measure the following properties of a cylinder: radius 2.5 cm height 15.0 cm mass 330 gm Suppose further that the accuracy of our length measurements is estimated to be ±0.1 cm and the accuracy of our mass measurement to be ±2 gm. Calculate the density of the cylinder.
27 Unit 20 Functions of Many Variables, and Vectors in R 2 and R 3 25 Now estimate the error bound in this calculation. Include units.
28 26 If a is the error made in a measurement (or calculation) of a quantity a, then the ratio a is often referred to as the relative error. If we multiply it by 100, as a in a 100, we get the percentage error. a Suppose f(x,y,z) = x m y n z p. Show that the following formula for relative error is correct. f f m x x + n y y + p z z (CAUTION: This relative error formula only holds for functions that have this special form!)
29 Unit 20 Functions of Many Variables, and Vectors in R 2 and R 3 27 Vectors Reading: Sections We have seen that partial derivatives of a multi-variate function let us compute the slope of a surface in the x and y directions. However, we can also define a slope or steepness if we choose to move in an arbitrary direction. To do that kind of computation, we will need to introduce notation for arbitrary (x, y) directions. We will find the vector representation very helpful in this regard. Vectors Scalars A vector is a quantity that has both magnitude and direction. Velocity and force are examples of vector quantities. Quantities that have magnitude only are called scalars. Length and volume are examples of scalar quantities.
30 28 It is often convenient to use arrows to represent vector quantities. The length of the arrow corresponds to the magnitude of the vector and the direction of the arrow tells you the direction of the vector. A natural question to ask is does it matter where the vector is located? The answer to this question is that it does not matter. Two arrows that have the same direction and magnitude are two representations of the same vector.
31 Unit 20 Functions of Many Variables, and Vectors in R 2 and R 3 29 Which of the following arrows represent the same vector (i) the arrow from (0,0) to (3,4); (ii) the arrow from (2,2) to (5, 2); (iii) the arrow from ( 1,3) to (2,7); (iv) the arrow from (1,2) to ( 2, 2)?
32 30 It is possible to combine vector quantities in much the same way as we combine numbers (by addition and subtraction). For the vectors v 1 and v 2 below v 1 v 2 sketch v 1 + v 2 v 1 v 2 v 2 v 1
33 Unit 20 Functions of Many Variables, and Vectors in R 2 and R 3 31 Sketch the vectors ( v 1 v 1 ), and ( v 2 v 2 ). The result of these last two differences is called the zero vector. It is a vector with zero length, and is the only vector for which we can assign no direction.
34 32 Vector Components To manipulate vectors without needing to draw arrows, we need a symbolic representation for them. One of the most useful representations is the component form of a vector.
35 Unit 20 Functions of Many Variables, and Vectors in R 2 and R 3 33 Component Unit Vectors We define i a vector of length 1 in the direction of the x axis j a vector of length 1 in the direction of the y axis k a vector of length 1 in the direction of the z axis Components of a vector If we expression a vector in the form v = v 1 i+v 2 j +v 3 k we call v 1 i, v 2 j, and v 3 k the components of v Alternate Component Form If v = v 1 i+v 2 j +v 3 k, a shorter form for the component representation is v =< }{{} v 1, }{{} v 2, }{{} v 3 > i j k
36 34 Note: sometimes mathematicians use different bracket shapes v = [v 1,v 2,v 3 ] or v = (v 1,v 2,v 3 ) to indicate that the set of values represents a vector, rather than a point. We will continue to use either the vector component ( i, j) or angled parentheses (< and >).
37 Unit 20 Functions of Many Variables, and Vectors in R 2 and R 3 35 Example: Express the following vectors in both component forms: v 1 v 3 v 4 v 2 Question: Which of the following vectors represents v 1 + v 3? (a) < 2, 3 > (b) < 3, 3 > (c) < 3,2 > (d) < 3,3 >
38 36 v 1 v 3 v 4 v 2 Question: Which of the following vectors represents v 4 v 3? (a) < 3, 3 > (b) < 3,5 > (c) < 1, 1 > (d) < 1,1 >
39 Unit 20 Functions of Many Variables, and Vectors in R 2 and R 3 37 Magnitude or Length From Components If v = v 1 i+v 2 j The length of a vector v = v1 2+v2 2 In 3 dimensions, where v = v 1 i+v 2 j +v 3 k, v = v1 2+v2 2 +v2 3 How long is the vector < 2, 3 >? (a) -1 (b) 5 (c) 13 (d) 13
40 38 Application Example: An airplane sets itself on a heading due east, at an air speed of 600 km/hr. It has a tail-wind of 80 km/h from the north-west. What is the plane s net velocity vector relative to the ground?
41 Unit 20 Functions of Many Variables, and Vectors in R 2 and R 3 39 Example: An airplane is flying at an airspeed of 800 km/hr, in winds that are blowing from the south at a speed of 50 km/hr. In what direction should the plane head to end up going due east, relative to the ground?
