  • Prompt

    Assess students' ability to find and classify critical points of multivariable functions by computing gradients and Hessian matrices, using eigenvalue-based definiteness tests to identify local minima, maxima, and saddle points in R^2 and R^n; include treatment of degenerate (zero-eigenvalue) cases and interpretation of eigenvectors for saddle orientation.
