If the unit vector u makes an angle theta with the positive x-axis then we can write u = <cos theta, sin theta>
Duf(x, y) = fx(x,y) cos theta + fy(x,y) sin theta
What if I am dealing with a function with three variables (x, y, z)?
How can I find the directional derivative if I have been given an angle?
