   find the points (a, b) (a, b) of the plane that satisfy the tangent of the level curve M = f(a, b) M = f (a, b) in the point (a, b) (a, b) passes through (0, 1) (0, 1). I tried solving this simply by using the equation of the tangent to a level curve: fx(a, b)(x − a) +fy(a, b)(y − b) = 0 f x (a, b) (x − a) + f y (a, b) (y − b) = 0 ...

   How do you find a tangent to a level curve?

   • Explain the significance of the gradient vector with regard to direction of change along a surface. Use the gradient to find the tangent to a level curve of a given function. Calculate directional derivatives and gradients in three dimensions. A function z = f(x, y) has two partial derivatives: ∂ z / ∂ x and ∂ z / ∂ y.

   How do you find the tangent line of a function?

   • The title is misleading. You can't find the tangent line of a function, what you want is the tangent line of a level curve of that function (at a particular point). Let z = f(x, y) = ex − y(2x2 + y2). Then at the point (1, 0), the value of z is f(1, 0) = 2e, hence the level curve is given by the implicit relation f(x, y) = 2e = ex − y(2x2 + y2).

   How to find tangent and normal vectors to level curves of a function?

   • Suppose the function z = f(x, y) has continuous first-order partial derivatives in an open disk centered at a point (x0, y0). If ⇀ ∇ f(x0, y0) ≠ 0, then ⇀ ∇ f(x0, y0) is normal to the level curve of f at (x0, y0). We can use this theorem to find tangent and normal vectors to level curves of a function.

   Why is the second vector tangent to the level curve?

   • However, the second vector is tangent to the level curve, which implies the gradient must be normal to the level curve, which gives rise to the following theorem. Suppose the function z = f(x, y) has continuous first-order partial derivatives in an open disk centered at a point (x0, y0).

   How do you calculate a tangent vector?

   • Use any functional form of the curve f=f (t) (f values are n-dimensional, t is a real value). And for the point of interest P that corresponds to t=x take f' (t) at x. Divide by modulus of f' (t) computed at x (is going to be a n-dimensional quantity). And voila! the unit tangent vector to your curve.

   How do you find a point whose tangent contains 0?

   • So this tells you that a point whose tangent contains (0, 1) ( 0, 1) must satisfy that last equation. It must also be a point of the original curve, i.e., satisfy x3 + 3x2y −y3 = M x 3 + 3 x 2 y − y 3 = M. Those two equations together may determine just a few points.
