functions:
(a) w = x2 + y 2 , x = cos t + sin t, y = cos t − sin t; t = 0,

(b) w = z − sin (xy), x = t, y = ln t z = et−1 ; t = 1.

the direction of the line PQ where Q has coordinates (5, 0, 4). In what direction it will be maximum
and what is its value?

(i) f (x, y, z) = xy 2 + yz 3 at (2, −1, 1) in the direction of i + 2j + 2k.

should it fly?
10. Find the directions in which the functions increase and decrease most rapidly at P0 . Then find the
derivatives of the functions in these directions.
