(b) On the following page is a set of level curves.
(i) At the point A, are fe and fy positive or negative? Please explain your answer.
(ii) At the point B, is the directional derivative in the direction of the vector
positive or negative? Explain.
(iii) Find a point where there is a local maximum and label it "C".
(iv) Find all global maxima and minima on the path given by the dotted black line.
Circle the points that are maxima, and put a square around the ones that are
minima.
(v) What must be true about the relationship between the level curve passing
through the points you listed in (iv) and the dotted path at those points (or,
their corresponding tangent vectors)? Please explain using complete sentences.
(vi) Suppose your friend wanted to find the steepest path up starting at point D,
so they found the gradient vector and kept walking in a straight line in that
direction. Where would they end up? Explain what is wrong with this reasoning
and draw the path you would take instead.
