i need help in partial differentiation problems

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[if u =\frac{ \tan^{-1} (xy) }{ \sqrt{1+x ^{2}+ y^{2}} }\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Show that \[\frac{ \delta u }{ \delta x} =\frac{ y }{ (1+x^{2})\sqrt{1+x ^{2}+y ^{2}} }\]

hartnn (hartnn):

when partially diff. with respect to x, we treat 'y' as constant

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OK...

OpenStudy (perl):

still need help?

hartnn (hartnn):

did you try ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@perl yes...

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@hartnn yes..

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Whenever there is dy/dx, that shall become 0.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Treat 'y' as a constant. Now apply normal differentiation. d(u/v)/dx= ((v.du/dx)-(u.dv/dx))/v^2 Here, u=arctan(xy), v=(1+x^2+y^2)^0.5

hartnn (hartnn):

it will b like differentiating \(\Large u =\frac{ \tan^{-1} (ay) }{ \sqrt{b+x ^{2}} }\) where a and b are constants

hartnn (hartnn):

*** \(\Large u =\frac{ \tan^{-1} (ax) }{ \sqrt{b+x ^{2}} }\)

OpenStudy (perl):
