- The level curves of the function z =f (x,y) z = f (x, y) are two dimensional curves we get by setting z = k z = k, where k k is any number. So the equations of the level curves are f (x,y) =k f (x, y) = k.

A function has many level curves, as one obtains a different level curve for each value of c c in the range of f(x, y) f (x, y). We can plot the level curves for a bunch of different constants c c together in a level curve plot, which is sometimes called a contour plot.

Given a function f (x, y) f (x, y) and a number c c in the range of f, a 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.
Sep 29, 2023 · A level curve of a function \(f\) of two independent variables \(x\) and \(y\) is a curve of the form \(k = f(x,y)\text{,}\) where \(k\) is a constant. A level curve describes the set of inputs that lead to a specific output of the function.
