VerifiedStep 1
1 of 2We verify the chain rule by using the rule (4) on page 147. First we calculate
Note that the variables are all expressed in terms of . We can now define the function as:
The differential of is given by the matrix:
We now express the terms in over and multiply with . This will verify the chain rule.
Multiplying and will yield the result.
