Answer:

<h2>a) f =  sin(yz)i + xzcos(yz)j + xycos(yz)k</h2><h2>b) -2</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

Given f(x, y, z) = x sin(yz), the formula for calculating the gradient of the function is expressed as ∇f(x, y, z) = fx(x, y, z)i+ fy(x, y, z)j+fz(x, y, z)k where;

fx, fy and fz are the differential of the functions with respect to x, y and z respectively.

a) ∇f(x, y, z) = sin(yz)i + xzcos(yz)j + xycos(yz)k

The gradient of f =  sin(yz)i + xzcos(yz)j + xycos(yz)k

b) Directional derivative of f at (1,2,0) in the direction of v = i + 4j − k is expressed as ∇f(1, 2, 0)*v

∇f(1, 2, 0) = sin(2(0))i +1*0cos(2*0)j + 1*2cos(2*0)k

∇f(1, 2, 0) = sin0i +0cos(0)j + 2cos(0)k

∇f(1, 2, 0) = 0i +0j + 2k

Given v = i + 4j − k

∇f(1, 2, 0)*v (note that this is the dot product of the two vectors)

∇f(1, 2, 0)*v =  (0i +0j + 2k)*(i + 4j − k )

Given i.i = j.j = k.k =1 and i.j=j.i=j.k=k.j=i.k = 0

∇f(1, 2, 0)*v = 0(i.i)+4*0(j.j)+2(-1)k.k

∇f(1, 2, 0)*v = 0(1)+0(1)-2(1)

∇f(1, 2, 0)*v =0+0-2

∇f(1, 2, 0)*v= -2

 

Hence, the directional derivative of f at (1, 2, 0) in the direction of v = i + 4j − k is -2

Triangle A'B'C' is the image of triangle ABC under a rotation about point Q.<br><br>​
yan [13]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  True; about 120° CCW rotation about Q

Step-by-step explanation:

Triangle A'B'C' appears to be congruent to triangle ABC and about the same distance from point Q. The angle of rotation from ABC to A'B'C' appears to be about 120° counterclockwise when measured using a geometry program.

Triangle A'B'C' is the image of triangle ABC under rotation about 120° CCW about point Q.

_____

<em>Additional comment</em>

If choices of rotation angle are ±135° or ±165°, the best choice would be ...

  135°
