Let UR2U \subset \mathbb{R}^{2} be an open set. Define what it means for a function f:URf: U \rightarrow \mathbb{R} to be differentiable at a point (x0,y0)U\left(x_{0}, y_{0}\right) \in U.

Prove that if the partial derivatives D1fD_{1} f and D2fD_{2} f exist on UU and are continuous at (x0,y0)\left(x_{0}, y_{0}\right), then ff is differentiable at (x0,y0)\left(x_{0}, y_{0}\right).

If ff is differentiable on UU must D1f,D2fD_{1} f, D_{2} f be continuous at (x0,y0)?\left(x_{0}, y_{0}\right) ? Give a proof or counterexample as appropriate.

The function h:R2Rh: \mathbb{R}^{2} \rightarrow \mathbb{R} is defined by

h(x,y)=xysin(1/x) for x0,h(0,y)=0h(x, y)=x y \sin (1 / x) \quad \text { for } x \neq 0, \quad h(0, y)=0

Determine all the points (x,y)(x, y) at which hh is differentiable.
