- Given a function f (x, y) f (x, y) and a number c c in the range of f f, a level curve of a function of two variables for the value c c is defined to be the set of points satisfying the equation f (x, y) =c f (x, y) = c. Returning to the function g(x, y) = √9−x2 −y2 g (x, y) = 9 − x 2 − y 2, we can determine the level curves of this function.
