MATLAB 241: Prof. Green's 2nd Assignment - Critical Points Classification - Prof. Paul S. , Assignments of Advanced Calculus

The second matlab assignment for math 241 students under professor green. The assignment involves finding critical points of a function h(x,y) in a given square, evaluating the function at these points, and plotting the gradient and contours to classify the critical points using both the plot and the second derivative test.

intersection.
2. Evaluate h at the critical points and obtain a plot of h showing the gradient and
some contours corresponding to values of h at and near the critical points.
3. Classify the critical points of h based on your plot, and then confirm your
classification by using the second derivative test.

MATH 241 (Professor Green) Second Matlab Assignment

. Let h (^^ x , y )^ x^4  x^3 y sin( xy )( x ^1 ) y^2. 1. Find all critical points of h in the square ^2  x^ ^2 ,^2  y ^2. You will need to plot the curves hx^ ^0 and hy^ ^0 , and use newton2d to find the points of intersection. 2. Evaluate h at the critical points and obtain a plot of h showing the gradient and some contours corresponding to values of h at and near the critical points. 3. Classify the critical points of h based on your plot, and then confirm your classification by using the second derivative test.
