Consider the following theorem. If f is a differentiable function of x and y, then the directional derivative of f in the direction of the unit vector u = cos(8)i + sin(8)j is D f(x, y) = f(x, y) cos(8) + f(x, y) sin(8). Use the theorem to find the directional derivative of the function at P in the direction of PQ. f(x, y) = e¹y sin(x), P(0, 0), Q(3, 1)
