    Can Lagrange's Undetermined Multiplier Have Imaginary Points?

    I only say by inspection to save writing out the rest of the calculation but I did try it. 2x + λ(2x - 4y) = 0 2y + λ(2y - 4x) = 0 λ= -2x/(2x - 4y) = -2y/(2y - 4x) [-2x/(2x - 4y) = -2y/(2y - 4x)] *-1 2x/(2x - 4y) = 2y/(2y - 4x) [2x/(2x - 4y) = 2y/(2y - 4x)]/2 x/(2x - 4y) = y/(2y - 4x)...

    Can Lagrange's Undetermined Multiplier Have Imaginary Points?

    Hey guys, new here and this is my first post. Wondering if anyone could help me. So I've encountered a problem on Lagrange's undetermined multiplier. Usually i have no problem with these, but this one caught me off a little. g(x,y) = x^2 + y^2 - 4xy - 6 = 0 Find the points closest to the...
