Find the extreme values of f(x y)=xy subject to the constraint x^2 + y^2 -4 = 0

Via Lagrange multipliers:

L(x,y,\lambda)=xy+\lambda(x^2+y^2-4)

L_x=y+2\lambda x=0
L_y=x+2\lambda y=0
L_\lambda=x^2+y^2-4=0

yL_x=y^2+2\lambda xy=0
xL_y=x^2+2\lambda xy=0
\implies yL_x-xL_y=y^2-x^2=0\implies y^2=x^2
\implies x^2+y^2=4=2x^2\implies x^2=2\implies x=\pm\sqrt2\implies y=\pm\sqrt2

So we have four critical points to consider, (\sqrt2,\sqrt2),(-\sqrt2,\sqrt2),(\sqrt2,-\sqrt2),(-\sqrt2,-\sqrt2). If both coordinates are positive or both are negative, we get a maximum value of (\pm\sqrt2)^2=2; otherwise, we get a minimum of (-\sqrt2)(\sqrt2)=-2.

Write the coordinates of the vertices after a reflection over the x-axis. 1072
Liula [17]

The reflection about x-axis results in same x coodinate with oppositive of y coordinate. It can be expressed as,

(x,y)\rightarrow(x,-y)

Determine the coordinates of the vertices after reflection over the x-axis.
