Question: ( 2 p t s ) Let z = f ( x , y ) b e a smooth function with gradf ( 1 ,

(2pts) Let z=f(x,y)be a smooth function with gradf(1,2)=3vec(i)+4vec(j).
(a) Compute the directional derivative fvec(u)(1,2), where vec(u)is shown in Figure 1(II).
(b) Refer to Figure 1(III) for gradf(1,2) and vec(v). Suppose the directional derivative fvec(v)(1,2)=2.5.
Determine the angle between gradf(1,2) and vec(v).
Figure 1. Figures for Problem 1 and Problem 2.
(2pts) Vectors vec(a),vec(b),vec(c), and vec(w)=grad(Q) are shown in Figure 1(I). Arrange the directional
derivatives fvec(a)(Q),fvec(b)(Q), and fvec(c)(Q)in ascending order (from smallest, to largest) :
