  1. Level curves of the function g(x,y)=√9−x2−y2 g (x y) = 9 − x 2 − y 2, using c=0,1,2 c = 0 1, 2, and 3 3 (c=3 c = 3 corresponds to the origin). A graph of the various level curves of a function is called a contour map.

  2. Nov 16, 2022 · The level curves (or contour curves) for this surface are given by the equation are found by substituting \(z = k\). In the case of our example this is, \[k = \sqrt {{x^2} + {y^2}} \hspace{0.25in}\hspace{0.25in} \Rightarrow \hspace{0.25in}\hspace{0.25in}{x^2} + {y^2} = {k^2}\]

  3. One way to collapse the graph of a scalar-valued function of two variables into a two-dimensional plot is through level curves. A level curve of a function $f(x,y)$ is the curve of points $(x,y)$ where $f(x,y)$ is some constant value. A level curve is simply a cross section of the graph of $z=f(x,y)$ taken at a constant value, say $z=c$. A ...

  4. Find and graph the level curve of the function g (x, y) = x 2 + y 2 − 6 x + 2 y g (x, y) = x 2 + y 2 − 6 x + 2 y corresponding to c = 15. c = 15. Another useful tool for understanding the graph of a function of two variables is called a vertical trace.

  5. Dec 29, 2020 · A level curve at \(z=c\) is a curve in the \(x\)-\(y\) plane such that for all points \((x,y)\) on the curve, \(f(x,y) = c\). When drawing level curves, it is important that the \(c\) values are spaced equally apart as that gives the best insight to how quickly the "elevation'' is changing. Examples will help one understand this concept.

  6. Example 1. Let $f(x,y) = x^2-y^2$. We will study the level curves $c=x^2-y^2$. First, look at the case $c=0$. The level curve equation $x^2-y^2=0$ factors to $(x-y)(x+y)=0$. This equation is satisfied if either $y=x$ or $y=-x$. Both these are equations for lines, so the level curve for $c=0$ is two lines.
