Second Derivative TestSuppose is a Function of which is twice Differentiable at a Stationary Point . - 1. If
, then has a Relative Minimum at . - 2. If
, then has a Relative Maximum at . The Extremum Test gives slightly more general conditions under which a function with is a maximum or minimum.
If is a 2-D Function which has a Relative Extremum at a point and hasContinuous Partial Derivatives at this point, then and . The second Partial Derivatives test classifiesthe point as a Maximum or Minimum. Define the Discriminant as
- 1. If
, and , the point is a Relative Minimum. - 2. If
, , and , the point is a Relative Maximum. - 3. If
, the point is a Saddle Point. - 4. If
, higher order tests must be used. See also Discriminant (Second Derivative Test), Extremum, Extremum Test, First Derivative Test,Global Maximum, Global Minimum, Hessian Determinant, Maximum, Minimum, RelativeMaximum, Relative Minimum, Saddle Point (Function) References
